  • nREPL 1.0 released!
    2 projects | /r/Clojure | 25 Aug 2022
    He participated in the discussions here, but so far there hasn't been any actual work happening after them. My focus was mostly on CIDER lately, but I think it'd be nice to start creating some tickets based on the discussions and try to get some work done on that front. There were plenty of cool ideas and most of them aren't particularly hard to implement.
  • Ideas for Clojure Network Eval API

    There’s active discussion on the nrepl repo about this article and related issues, so if you have thoughts about the future of nrepl, you should voice them there!
  • An Update on CIDER 1.2
    2 projects | /r/Clojure | 24 Nov 2021
    I'm very excited about sideloader feature in nREPL 0.9 and the corresponding ability for CIDER to upgrade the connection, adding its middleware. But I don't see this connection upgrading feature ticket #3037 in the plans for CIDER 1.2, but the sideloader ticket #246 is listed in the plans for nREPL 0.9. It seems that #3037 is held only by #246, so if it will be solved by the time 0.9 release, will there be plans to supporting it in CIDER 1.2?
  • Is interactive REPL-based development in conflict with the functional discipline?
    1 project | /r/lisp | 30 Sep 2021
    No and no. Scheme is loosely biased toward FP and still you still have a REPL with Scheme dialects, including Racket going as far as to provide an IDE+REPL combination (DrRacket). Clojure is strongly opinionated toward FP and also has a strong REPL experience and a good experience for interactive, iterative development on running programs via nrepl. OCaml, another functional language from the ML family, has one of the best non-lispi REPLs (called a "toplevel" there) around. And, of course, you can do FP in CL as well despite it not really encouraging it in the same way.
