reveal VS dot-clojure

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)

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.

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.

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

Or: https://vlaaad.github.io/reveal/

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.

Also my dot-clojure and vscode-calva-setup repos have some interesting stuff in for using/customizing Portal for use with VS Code: * https://github.com/seancorfield/dot-clojure * https://github.com/seancorfield/vscode-calva-setup * https://github.com/djblue/portal

Here's an example in the form of a deps.edn file: https://github.com/seancorfield/dot-clojure/blob/develop/deps.edn

I use Reveal extensively with VS Code/Clover -- you can see my setup here: https://github.com/seancorfield/vscode-clover-setup -- and I use the Clojure CLI with a dev.clj file to start my Reveal REPL (on its own, or in conjunction with Rebel Readline and/or Figwheel Main). You can see that setup here: https://github.com/seancorfield/dot-clojure

I use VS Code to work on a production Clojure codebase of 108K lines every day. I use Clover for REPL integration -- you can see my setup here: https://github.com/seancorfield/vscode-clover-setup -- and I use the Clojure CLI for everything. You can see my deps.edn setup here: https://github.com/seancorfield/dot-clojure

Reveal is designed to be integratable into any text editor/IDE that is capable of sending forms using socket connection/nrepl protocol. For atom there is a setup by Sean Cornfield here: https://github.com/seancorfield/dot-clojure/blob/develop/dev.clj
