Dev here. I built Bareforge to address a gap from design to code.

I previously built a library of 90+ web components (BareDOM), and I wanted a way to make those components immediately useful. I often find myself translating designs into working SPAs, so I thought I would build a visual builder that supports the manual coding phase.

What makes it interesting imo: Bareforge (v0.1.1) is a drag-and-drop designer, built in CLJS, where you can design a page and declare reactive state (fields, computed fields, records) directly on the canvas. You can wire DOM events to actions that mutate data live.

It exports a fully functional, interactive project in either vanilla JS or ClojureScript. It’s designed for small bundle sizes and human-readable code.

The export system is pluggable. It currently defaults to JS or CLJS, but can be extended by adding targets for React, Svelte, or other frameworks. I used Claude Code during development.

I'd love feedback on the drag and drop UX, quality of the exported code (would you commit it to a repo?) or what exports you would like to see.
