AFAIK Cider is like SLIME, big and integrated. Emacs nrepl is just the repl connection, and is usually enough (at least, has been enough for me).

- craigching 13y agoOk, maybe I'm misunderstanding, but from [1]: "CIDER (formerly nrepl.el) is the Clojure IDE and REPL for Emacs, built on top of nREPL, the Clojure networked REPL server." That and the availability of the packages on melpa: cider 20140318.... available Clojure Integrated Development Environment and REPL And the fact that technomancy's git repository for nrepl.el hasn't been touched in 2 years leads me to believe that cider is the better nREPL choice ;) Be happy to hear that nrepl.el is still maintained and is better in some way than cider, but I don't see cider as being that heavy (at least as compared to SLIME).
