joyride VS nvim-dap-virtual-text

I haven’t used VS Code so I don’t know, but I wonder if Joyride with Clojure gives you the functionality of evaluating code and change the environment interactively https://github.com/BetterThanTomorrow/joyride

This is a perfect example for when you want to use Joyride. You find examples and a presentation video where I demo some examples, here: https://github.com/BetterThanTomorrow/joyride/tree/master/examples Feel invited to start a discussion here https://github.com/BetterThanTomorrow/joyride/discussions and we will be happy to help you get this script created.

This is the kind of editor scripting that Emacs users take for granted. Now VS Code users can too. Check here for some pointers on how to leverage user space scripting of VS Code: https://github.com/BetterThanTomorrow/joyride

This is why we created Joyride, which lets you script VS Code in user space. Not only that, it gives you a REPL letting you control VS Code and modify your script as they are running. The main inspiration comes from Emacs, the definition of a hackable editor. https://github.com/BetterThanTomorrow/joyride

What if you could script and control VS Code with a REPL, like you can do with Emacs? What if it is a Clojure REPL? Leveraging SCI, this is what Joyride (https://github.com/BetterThanTomorrow/joyride) lets you do. We'll take a look at what possibilities this opens, what the limitations are, and what people have done with Joyride so far, four months since the first release.

Thanks! Please consider filing your suggestion here as an idea on the Joyride discussions section: https://github.com/BetterThanTomorrow/joyride/discussions

https://github.com/mfussenegger/nvim-dap + https://github.com/theHamsta/nvim-dap-virtual-text should be able to do it, I think?

There's a nice dap plugin for neovim nvim-dap-virtual-text that shows the values of local variables as like a tooltip next to them in the source as you're debugging. CIDER (clojure mode for emacs) has a a similar mode you could look at for ideas how to implement in elisp

Lastly, I use a plugin that at runtime evaluates the state of your program (e.g. what value is assigned to this variable? Which is handy especially when you're stepping through a loop -- see screenshots in linked repo) https://github.com/theHamsta/nvim-dap-virtual-text

Using a combination of https://github.com/mfussenegger/nvim-dap, with https://github.com/rcarriga/nvim-dap-ui and https://github.com/theHamsta/nvim-dap-virtual-text

Nvim-Dap-Virtual-Text Gives us nice information
