    Clojure does pretty well. See https://github.com/nubank/morse, https://docs.datomic.com/cloud/other-tools/REBL.html, and https://vlaaad.github.io/reveal/.

    It's one of the areas that homoiconicity helps: code is data, data is code, so visualization tools can work on both sides.

    I'm glad the MATLAB interface isn't dead haha

    This this looks awfully similar to Reveal - (though a first blush it looks less composable and modular)

  • [ANN] London Clojurians Talk: Reveal: lessons learned (by Vlad Protsenko)
    1 project | /r/Clojure | 2 Sep 2022
    In this talk Vlad shares his findings after developing and using Reveal daily. Reveal (https://github.com/vlaaad/reveal) aims to solve this problem by creating an in-process repl output pane that makes inspecting values as easy as selecting an interesting datum. It recognizes the value of text as a universal interface, that's why its output looks like a text: you can select it, copy it, save it into a file. Unlike text, reveal output holds references to printed values, making inspecting selected value a matter of opening a context menu.
  • FlowStorm 2.2 new features demo

    Neat project. I use Reveal for some debugging purposes but it's not a true debugger like this project. I am looking forward to using FlowStorm in my projects.

    ;; :main-opts ["-m" "cognitect.rebl"]}

    Into your '~/.clojure/deps.edn'.

    From there I can just add 'rebl' as a profile to my Intellj when you start a REPL it starts automatically.

    There are also alternative tools like Portal to do the same things: https://github.com/djblue/portal

    Reveal is a Read Eval Visualize Loop for Clojure, a powerful and extensible REPL output pane that lives in the JVM. Being in-process allows for easy access to objects, which makes it perfect for data inspection.
