Om came first, Cloact (eventually renamed Reagent due to an unfortunate similarity with a certain body part of a snake) came after it.

Here is the original HN post about Cloact: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7037038

You can see people comparing it to Om.

Here is a blog post of his from 2013 that mentions Om: https://swannodette.github.io/2013/12/31/time-travel/

And yeah, Reagent "won" because it was way simpler but I'd find it hard to believe that it wasn't influence or inspired by Om.

You could argue that Clojurescript early adoption of React was one of the reasons for it's rise. The early work of David Nolan (Om) and Dan Holmsand (Cloact->Reagent) were, at least in my opinion, pretty influential. Clojure's immutable data structures were (are) a perfect fit. iirc, the fact that "shouldComponentUpdate" could be performant with equality was a huge, easy performance/simplicity win. I may be way off about that, if so, I apologize.
