I also love Clojure and find it a very productive language. But surely the article makes it clear it falls very short of ‘real’ Lisp environments? There’s not much that Emacs and CIDER do that is so different to modes for other languages mentioned in the article with REPLs. If you’ve ever had stale protocol/record definitions in a Clojure REPL you know it doesn’t provide the features described. The whole ‘reloaded’ workflow is built around these limitations. All that said I’ve never really liked this idea of editing as you go with extreme late binding in the debugger. Just seems a recipe for non-reproducible code. I love being able to explore and experiment in the REPL, but ultimately everything coalesces into code and tests in files. These give me far more confidence to move forward than a long lived REPL session. There’s stuff like Reveal[0] which is interesting but I’ve only ever found it a marginal upgrade on pretty printing, at the cost that it sits outside Emacs so slows me down anyway. 0: https://vlaaad.github.io/reveal/ https://vlaaad.github.io/reveal/
