What I Have Changed My Mind About in Software Development

• flow-storm-debugger

  33 626 9.5 Clojure

  A debugger for Clojure and ClojureScript with some unique features.

  

Tracing debuggers give you the best of both worlds. I've recently started using Flow-storm [0], by @jpmonettas), and it's been quite transformative. You can still easily see the values flowing through your system (better than just "prints"), and it can handle multi-threaded / async scenarios quite nicely. You don't need to manually step through code, you can just "see" your data flow, and when you have loops or some other form of iteration, you can see the data for each pass. Coupling this with a good data visualization tool (such as Portal [1]) really feels like magic. I've been doing Clojure for quite a few years now, and was very happy with my plain REPL-driven workflow, but this is way better.

• chatgpt-shell

  25 764 9.3 Emacs Lisp

  ChatGPT and DALL-E Emacs shells + Org babel 🦄 + a shell maker for other providers

With lsp, the gap between IDEs vs text editors is narrowing. While I still prefer Emacs, I’m pragmatic enough to jump on to whatever tool does a better job for a specific task. At times, that is Xcode.

Was also sceptical about ChatGPT and changed my mind like OP. I was less pragmatic on this one and brought ChatGPT over to Emacs https://github.com/xenodium/chatgpt-shell. Pretty happy with the result so far.

• scope-capture

  9 557 0.0 Clojure

  Project your Clojure(Script) REPL into the same context as your code when it ran

Awesome tools.

Personally I can't imagine coding in clojure without scope capture
