I'm a big re-frame fan from the Clojurescript world so this all looks rather familiar. For me it's a great framework and worth learning Clojurescript for.

Seeing the h() function makes me realise how much I miss Hiccup syntax for HTML and your component tree, especially with editor support for parens it's a joy. But it looks nicer than JSX.

I'm going to give Hyperapp a try, I like the small size aspect especially, and familiarity of the overall architecture, my fear is that if you're going off-piste enough to avoid the React/Angular well trodden track on an app, you might as well go the whole way and use Re-frame which is very pragmatic, with JS interop it's possible to do pretty much anything you want. And whilst the type system and compiler of Elm is nice, the slightly more 'infamous' parts of restrictions to JS extensions make it more limited in the real world.
