zest.nvim VS conjure

Zest: similar to Aniseed, but much less expansive. It's a good option if you want a bit less diy if you want to deal with macros

zest provides some macros for configuring Neovim and is usable with Hotpot or Aniseed.

Thanks for mentioning zest! I'm certain that it will remain primarily a macro library. I've disabled the tiny compiler it ships with by default to prevent any confusion. As such, it should be compatible with hotpot out of the box.

I would greatly appreciate it if linked to zest.nvim in your readme.

Another plugin that gave me realization is zest.nvim, which uses the Fennel language to simplify configuration by a lot. Fennel's lispyness, REPL, and macros is gonna be a huge boost in Neovim productivity.

Also, this is a shameless plug, but I'm working on a macro library that aims to streamline the configuration process of neovim with fennel. It is a heavy WIP, but I think at this point it conveys the general idea reasonably well. See tsbohc/zest.nvim for more details.

I was going to say, in 2023 I looked around and for Clojure at least Conjure seemed like the best option.

Unfortunately, in the table linked above the CL support in Conjure is so-so. I'm curious what people use for CL or if it's still slimv/vlime.

I did a write up configuring Conjure with neovim here if that's something that's appealing:

The excellent olical/conjure plugin is now lua (via fennel..) but it was originally written in clojure and you can still see the code on the legacy-jvm branch https://github.com/Olical/conjure/tree/legacy-jvm

> You mean that you accidentally "overwrite" (declare again) a function with the same name as the one you're now declaring, but you didn't mean to?

I mean I use let to bind a variable with the same name as a function. This is idiomatic in Common Lisp, and totally breaks things in most other languages.

> This I'm also curious about, what exactly SLIME gives you that for example Conjure for neovim wouldn't already? Maybe something about continuations perhaps? That seems to be the only feature I've seen from Common Lisp (besides actually being able to compile to binaries) that I'd love to have in Clojure.

I watched a video and it does seem rather complete, but [1] indicates there is no debugger? That's a rather glaring omission. I also don't see a profiler mentioned, and SLIME with SBCL gives me a profiler (down to the assembly level if needed). I'm sure Java in general has great profiling tools, but how are the integrated into the Clojure system?

As an aside, by "continuations" did you mean "restarts"? First-class continuations are a feature of scheme, not CL. Indeed a huge boost to CL productivity is simply allowing you to handle an exception before the stack is unwound.

Does anyone know if there is a plugin like this one https://github.com/Olical/conjure for golang? Thank you in advance!

i know you said you didn't want source of other clients but this one is pretty simple so sharing just in case. it's from a nvim plugin https://github.com/Olical/conjure/blob/master/fnl/conjure/client/common-lisp/swank.fnl
