This reminds me a lot of Clojurescript's Reagent https://reagent-project.github.io/ (link also has a counter example)

I've tried using bare React in the past (after using Clojurescript), because I wanted my project to be more approachable for outsiders. But I couldn't really handle the (to me, and the author) unnecessary complexity that's added.

I would even say the Reagent version is even simpler than the Solid.js version, because you're using Clojure's Atom API rather than creating read / write functions. For the adventurous hearted I'd definitely recommend giving it a try!

Edit: Someone posted a Reagent counter example on codepen a few days ago: https://codepen.io/Prestance/pen/PoOdZQw

Imagine if we could have runtime characteristics of solid, dsl of hiccup and simple semantics of clojure atoms and refs!

It should be possible to build an idiomatic cljs layer over solid. Solid’s compilation step can be implemented with clojure macros.

I am already far too nerd sniped by other things to try building it myself but that does absolutely sound like fun.
