I know about revery[0] and cljfx[0], though I haven't had the chance to use them in anger. These both seem like very nice approaches to me - I'm partial to cljfx because I've been utterly spoiled by the clojure/script development experience, but I've also come to enjoy the typescript environment and revery seems to another step along that road.

Be sure to also check out fn-fx. I've tried both but haven't really done anything complex enough to bring out which one is a clear winner

Fn-fx is a more complex beast and no one seems to really know how it all works internally except the creator who isn't maintaining it.. so unfortunately it's in a semi unmaintained state. But the interface was a bit cleaner when I tried it

cljfx is actually inspired on fn-fx, and presents a much cleaner and more usable api, just by comparing the docs. I'm pretty sold on data-based apis instead of macro-based ones, though, so maybe it's just catering towards my preferred style of development.

oh okay. you sound more knowledgeable than me, so thanks for the input. I'll stick to cljfx then. I found it clunkier to mix with Java code, so I was considering switching back to fn-fx
