Thanks for the tips and reassurance – it's good to hear that using Visual Code is acceptable; it's what I'm more comfortable in, and I'll persevere with it!

- moomin 9y agoIt would be really useful if VSC supported the Emacs indentation style: it’s what most people use in real Clojure code. Paredit would be brilliant too (http://bit.ly/paredit http://bit.ly/paredit if you’re not familiar)
- modernerd 9y agoIt looks like there's an extension for paredit, but not sure how it compares to Emacs: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=clptn.code-paredit https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=clptn.co... For formatting, I've been using this, which supports cljfmt: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=avli.clojure https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=avli.clo... And the rainbow brackets extension has made code more legible while I've been learning: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=2gua.rainbow-brackets https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=2gua.rai...
- malloryerik 9y agoYou might also try Cursive[0], a full-featured plug-in for IntelliJ. You can use it free until you so something pro, after which it's about a hundred bucks. Many of the more well-known Clojurists seem to use it. I believe that with Clojure, you owe it to yourself to have a first-class REPL. I mostly use Emacs, but yeah, rabbit hole...
