Reference implementation of micro and mini Adapton in Clojure

This is a Clojure implementation of microAdapton and miniAdapton as described on adapton.org.

Not finished...

• Don't use this in production: performance improvements would need to be done
• I haven't come up with a good example that shows a performance increase over normal memoization yet, but I haven't tried terribly hard either.

Resources

• The paper this is based on: miniAdapton: A Minimal Implementation of Incremental Computation in Scheme
• Comparing Adapton to Reactive Programming: Programming Language Techniques for Incremental and Reactive Computing
• Another Clojure implementation: https://github.com/aibrahim/micro_adapton

Possible future improvements

• use a profiler to see why it's slow
• maybe use proteus for the mutable state? - https://github.com/ztellman/proteus
• make it work with core.cache and core.memoize
• maybe implement shadow dom and compare against vue and react?
  • Preact.js has a small api, might be a good way to do a POC
  • build your own react guides:
