Welcome to mxweb-trainer, the learn-by-doing repo for Matrix.
Matrix is the generic, point-reactive engine that began as Common Lisp Cells twenty-five years ago, and has been used to drive several significant enterprise-scale applications. Tilton's Algebra and an AskHN Who's Hiring browser are two.
Matrix manages even the most complex, asynchronous application state transparently and automatically, simply by watching application state usage at run-time. MobX is roughly comparable.
The prime use case for automatic state management is building GUI interfaces, so our Matrix trainer is also a trainer in using mxWeb.
Matrix has native versions for both JS, CLJS, and ClojureDart (CLJD). mxWeb stacks exist in varying degrees of completeness for:
- JS + HTML/CSS;
- CLJS + HTML/CSS;
- CLJD + Flutter;
- CJLS + React web; and
- CLJS + ReactNative.
We will port this trainer to all the above RSN, but for now we just have the CLJS+HTML/CSS version. Please continue here to get started on mxWeb/Matrix.
