What did you find painful about Reagent? I used the first version of Om for many years, which by now is definitely old and outdated, but it still was much more enjoyable and productive than directly using ReactJS. Reagent is a small, simple library that makes interacting with React quite straightforward as well, so I'm curious your pain points.

The lazy bastard that I am, I already knew ReactJS. ClojureScript's stack traces suck. I just didn't want to have to implement stuff in ClojureScript when I could write it in a language I was more familiar with. ReAgent/ClojureScript just seemed hacky. I don't remember specifics as it was almost 2 years ago.
