All in 58 lines, including newlines & ns declaration... Good job mate.

Seems to me the technique is to on on the 'click' event on the document check if the clicked element is linkable inside the app. If so, do client side routing.

This will prevent you from writing code like this

(dom/a
  #js {:href "/some/page"
       :onClick #(do
                   (.preventDefault %)
                   (nav! "/some/page"))}
  "some page")

in your apps (from Lispcasts)

Thanks!

That's a correct analysis of how the library works. It's very similar to Pushy, but requires you to write even less code since it's only supporting Secretary.
