Thanks for sharing your work!

Your demo app has a 1.7MB payload after gzipping (the main.js file alone is 9.5MB before gzip). For me, this alone would be a dealbreaker.

Do you have plans to reduce the payload size?

We do :) The Hyperfiddle Editor includes the whole ClojureScript compiler and standard library – because we are evaling userland cljs in the browser, obviously – but we will bake / pre-compile / dead-code-eliminate userland code in prod to get artifact sizes comparable to any normal ClojureScript project. We don't do this yet but it's straightforward to do.
Cool, I understand it's more important to get an MVP up and running before applying optimisations. It's good to know that it's on your radar though :)

Thanks for answering my question, and best of luck with Hyperfiddle!
