re-frame is seriously an awesome library, with incredible documentation to back it up. I remember spending a few days reading through all of it and coming out wildly impressed.

In case anyone is interested in its ideas but is stuck with JavaScript, you may be interested in a vanilla JavaScript port I've been (very sporadically) working on: https://github.com/davezuko/re-frame. It's incomplete, and definitely lacking in many areas (documentation being the obvious one), but perhaps somebody will find it useful or want to contribute back. I've personally been using it in some internal apps for a while now.

Tried to avoid a click-baity title but this was the best I could come up with. With the popularity of Redux I wanted to touch on one of the not-as-often talked about benefits it offers over traditional Flux.

Very interesting. I love to see how people deal with such tight deadlines, especially when they hit that eventual point mentioned in the article where things just sort of work out of sheer effort and it's too late to change their approach.

I am curious, however, about this comment: "We anticipated a higher proportion of the Colbert Report referrals would be using IE." What was the rationale behind this? Maybe I'm just wrong in my assumptions about the Colbert audience, but I'd definitely have expected a much more mobile-heavy (and non-IE) group.

Took a while to load (I'm at a coffee shop) but am really loving that dropdown.
