I'm highly in agreement with this POV. The way most JS libraries to do it, which is you supply a DOM element to the lib and then it populates it with more content, drives me completely insane. It makes things impossible to compose or algorithmically generate, you gotta write logic yourself to built up the structure and tie everything together. > Specifically, with respect to extensibility, my aim with Gorilla was to make > it as extensible as possible from the Clojure side, as I'm primarily I think this is a real benefit of the Gorilla way. You can create renderers at the REPL itself, since the rendering happens within the same evaluation environment. I think this is a sound idea, and not necessarily an either/or choice. I'm thinking about a way to have some form of rendering within the evaluation environment as well, but it requires more hammock time. One obvious use case is elliding large outputs. Also, it would be pretty interesting to see if Session's renderers could be reused inside Gorilla. It would be great if we could standardize on the rendering side of things, so content created in these systems can flow between them.
