If you are a Clojure developer who is interested in using Reactive Programming to build asynchronous and concurrent applications, this book is for you. Knowledge of Clojure and Leiningen is required. Basic understanding of ClojureScript will be helpful for the web chapters, although it is not strictly necessary.

The application we will build is extremely simple. All it does is track the position of the mouse using the reactive primitives we built into respondent.

To that end, we will be using the excellent lein template cljs-start (see https://github.com/magomimmo/cljs-start), created by Mimmo Cosenza to help developers get started with ClojureScript.

Let's get started:

lein new cljs-start respondent-app

Next, let's modify the project file to include the following dependencies:

[clojure-reactive-programming/respondent "0.1.0-SNAPSHOT"]
[prismatic/dommy "0.1.2"]

The first dependency is self-explanatory. It's simply our own framework. dommy is a DOM manipulation library for ClojureScript. We'll briefly use it when building our web page.

Next, edit the dev-resources/public/index.html file to...
