Editorial Hi there! Wow! ReactJS Conf happened and the videos were released. The big announcement was React Native, which promises to bring a single coding style to iOS and Android. How long before ClojureScript is running on it? Javascript is an interesting beast. Despite its faults (it was designed in 10 days!), it has become the most installed language in the world (anywhere?). And I give Javascript the major share of credit for popularizing the ideas of Functional Programming. Millions of dollars are spent trying to improve the VMs each year. And now Facebook, a major player, is throwing its weight behind a Javascript-based functional architecture that works on Web, iOS, and Android. And ClojureScript sits right on top of that. It's a wonderful time to be a Clojure developer. Rock on! Eric Normand <eric@lispcast.com> @ericnormand PS Learn more about the Clojure Gazette and subscribe.
