options

features

• many functions can need options that can be specified by the user
• the idea is to define a "spec" which allows the ui to be generated automatically.
• options is a map.
• available specs are:
  • :bool
  • :string
  • :select (from a list, possibly with a name that is different to the selected value)

example

 
(def state (r/atom {}))

(def config
  {:state state
   :current {; select
             :year 2023
