I'll go against the flow of people not happy about IntelliJ. My experience with it started with Android Studio which I found WAY better than eclipse. I like the UI better, I find it faster, easier and more configurable. Since then I started using IntelliJ products for everything, there are flavour for any environment you need, from Python to ruby or whatever. I can keep my settings in any context and there are tool for many frameworks and integrations like django or App Engine. I don't find it particularly slow. It's not blazing fast, but I would say it's in the norm. For the price I think it's a great asset to have.

I totally agree. I have purchased licenses for IntelliJ, RubyMine, and PyCharm for years. That said, 90% of the time I spend using Jetbrains projects is now simply using IntelliJ to edit Clojure and Clojurescript files. I run repls externally, and setup shortcuts for use with :reload or :reload-all. As a Clojure editor I like the fast code navigation, autocomplete, and visual warnings of syntax errors.

  Do you use Cursive? Last time I tried it I found some weird bugs in the text editing which caused problems for me. I very much wanted it to work though, I need to try it again.

    I install and use Cursive, occasionally, but I am waiting for it to ship as a product. Then I will probably buy it. The author has sent me a few emails, and seems dedicated to the project.
