I incorporated parinfer into my reagent live coding environment here[1], and it's been working pretty well. I have also used Atom with Parinfer to teach a nontechnical designer the basics of clojure. Enough to build templates using hic

Coming from Clojure to ClojureScript, I must say I have had some hard times with the dynamic, mutable, APIs that a lot of js libraries have. Even though interop is possible and not difficult, I am so much more comfortable using cljs wrapper

With cider and clojure-refactor mode, you can hotload a dependency without restarting the repl. It is kind of brittle but when it's working hot damn is it good.

Yeah, it's a pretty good idea. I've been using lisp and expand-region[1] and it just makes this frame-based editing dream come alive. I've just recorded a video where I'll refactor some code for fun. This code adds two a

A wise move to write a guide like this as content marketing. The key market for rocketshp appears to be early stage founders. This is a problem faced by that segment for sure.

For image hosting I use an s3 bucket with MonoSnap (a free program). You can configure Monosnap to record an area of your screen as a gif/mpeg or capture your screen, or you can drop files onto its tray icon, and it will upload the fi

While you're right the article is unbalanced -- I think it's acceptable when judging "not favorite".

I'd argue the purpose of school as we know it (Prussian model) is to indoctrinate the students to bow to authority, and diminish trust in peers. In which case you'd expect (student-lead) learning outside of school would be superio

That works for maps and many things, but I've had good use on other types of forms. Really a big fan of align-regxp.

It's entirely possible smcl hired those girls to go to Prauge and act that way so that he could tell you not to jump to conclusions. Please don't jump to conclusions.

I'm unclear about function invocation here... FTA: A function invocation. This comprises a list where the first element is the function and the rest of the elements are the arguments. first takes one argument, (1 2), and

If nutrition facts regulations went away tomorrow, I suspect the market would enforce their existence anyway. I think consumers want to know what is in the food they're eating, so you would get many startups who study what makes someth

Edn seems like a better solution here. Not o ly is the tagging more straightforward (wow not embedded in a string?), But you can write your own tags for custom types.

About the gif at the bottom of the page, where a div is swapped in place with an html sister node... That's 100% possible to do in Emacs, while editing plain html, using smartparens-strict-mode. Basically it treats the HTML like lisp

Exactly! I already mentioned it in this thread but, check out http://hiccup.space to show people how great it works. For more in depth examples see http://cljsfiddle.com
