Notes about setting up a ClojureScript dev environment with vim.

(switched to spacemacs in 2022 though)

Survey of tools

Build tools:

• shadow-cljs – simple / ease of use, – I'll start out with this one
• leiningen – main clojure build tool, – I guess this is the best one to learn in the long run
• boot – leiningen alternative, mostly developed in 2014/2015/2016 – leiningen/shadow-cljs looks like better bets

VIM integration:

• https://github.com/kovisoft/paredit
• https://github.com/kovisoft/slimv
• https://github.com/jgdavey/tslime.vim
• https://github.com/tpope/vim-fireplace
  • https://github.com/clojure-emacs/cider-nrepl
  • https://github.com/ctford/vim-fireplace-easy
  • https://github.com/ethagnawl/clojurescript-vim-fireplace-demo

Experiments

1. start shadow-cljs project – follow https://shadow-cljs.github.io/docs/UsersGuide.html
2. see if fireplace is easy to get working https://shadow-cljs.github.io/docs/UsersGuide.html#_fireplace_vim_vim_neovim
3. SUCCESS! NB: remember :Connect 3333 and :CljEval (shadow/repl :build-id)
