I'll give this a try. I'm currently using VSCode & Calva. It's been a bless! I create an uberjar with Clojure's nrepl server and start that server with my java project's dependent jars. At the end, I am able to "jack-in" the embedded repl server running with in a production-like environment. Needless to say, when I demoed this stuff, many engineers were excited to learn more about Clojure. They saw I inspected, ran and modified behavior of existing code all in the REPL without even redeploy/restart anything. I have to say that there are 3 things that I am very grateful for acquiring in 2019: got into Bach's music, learn to play the piano and finally "got" LISP via Clojure.
