Initially there was going to be a complimentary framework for Noir called Pinot for client-side code (clojurescript), which has since been broken up into a number of different libraries. Having more guidance around structuring large projects with these new tools (https://github.com/ibdknox/fetch, https://github.com/ibdknox/crate, https://github.com/ibdknox/jayq) in the context of a Noir app would be superb.
