Looks like the project has been archived

A Source Code Path Visualizer
I think LightTable development stalled out when the original creator left the project in 2015. Likely the project was too ambitious and maybe ahead of its time. Or maybe Clojure was not the right language to build an IDE...

Ask HN: Best Dev Tool pitches of all time?
I think the closest we got to a closure of Light Table is this: https://chris-granger.com/2014/10/01/beyond-light-table/
Which includes:
> Light Table will continue to go on strong. We haven’t talked too much about it lately, but it’s used by tens of thousands of people and still growing. We use it every day to help us build Eve and thanks to the awesome people in the community that has sprung up around it, it gets better every week.
Judging by GitHub contribution data (https://github.com/LightTable/LightTable/graphs/contributors...), it seems there has only been 25 commits (from one author) since Sep 20, 2019.

Are there extensible environments in the manner of Emacs outside of text editors and developer tools generally?
Most IDEs nowadays are as extensible as Emacs is, but most people don't think of them as app platforms, they think of them as IDEs, so they don't bother craeting Email or IRC clients for their IDEs: - Racket's own DrRacket IDE is pretty extensible, although no one seems to try to extend it with apps like Magit, Org-Mode, Calc, or whatever other useful features that Emacs provides. It is theoretically possible, but it just hasn't happened yet. - LightTable is a powerful programming editor written and extensible in Clojure. - Gnome's Gedit can be scripted in Python.

Emacs on Graal
I think it would be better to create an Emacs Lisp interpreter in Clojure for the LightTable editor.

Code Shelter: collective to help maintain popular OSS whose authors need a hand or don't have the time any more
It looks like it's not completely abandoned, at least. https://github.com/LightTable/LightTable/discussions/2506

Cider 1.0
I'm no Bozhidar, but thought I'd share some links you might find interesting:
- https://github.com/LightTable/LightTable - Clojure editor made in Clojure, not sure if it's being maintained anymore, core authors moved on to a different project if I remember correctly.
- https://github.com/mogenslund/liquid - Clojure editor made in Clojure, fairly new and basic but has a pretty tight integration with Clojure (itself really) which makes it interesting and it can also be embedded into other applications (or embed your other applications into Liquid)
- https://github.com/Olical/conjure - My daily driver for Clojure development. Is not an editor by itself, but it's written in Clojure, and exposed to neovim as a vim plugin. Not only supports Clojure, but also Fennel, Janet and Racket so far. Pretty handy if you sometimes like to dive into Clojure-like languages that are not Clojure (or Racket).

CudaText: Cross-platform, open source code editor written in Object Pascal
I mostly work on MacOS these days and previously my general purpose text editor wax Textmate: https://github.com/textmate/textmate
Last official release was 2021, so I looked for something more regularely updated, and found CudaText. Definitely very Sublime-ish, and I like it so far.
- Which apps do you install first on any new Mac?

BBEdit is 30 years old
Textmate 2.0 got open-sourced https://github.com/textmate/textmate but it looks pretty much abandoned/finished.
- Atom has been archived

Best Mac OS version for web development on a MBP 2012
Use a native editor. VS Code is IMHO awful. Someone mentioned Sublime which is fast and has some nice features, but its non-native UI is IMHO ugly and clumsy. You might like it for similarity to VS Code, I guess. If you want something much more "Mac", though: https://macromates.com
