3- yes, Electric Clojure is a Clojure library (macro) so the interop story is identical to Clojure’s

2- Electric vars are reactive signals and stock prices are signals, so: (if (< price target) ($ Modal))

1- we can support microservice topologies (N sites) in principle though the work requires a corporate design partner to make sure we get it right.

This is an important capability for the Hyperfiddle layer - a Universal UI is only as valuable as the data it reaches; i.e., as far as RAD platforms go, service connectivity is the only thing that matters. Today, connecting a service to a UI requires immeasurable amounts of glue code (constantly shifting, breaking, requiring ongoing maintenance) at the cost of ~$100k+ per year per service connection, and costs grow superlinearly with complexity of the service! Electric collapses to zero the cost of service connectivity.
