Sounds like it is time to improve the README. :-)
Run the repl and browse to localhost:8080. Click on a lab to get
started. That's it.
Better than plain HTML:
* Code less susceptible to copy paste errors: it is evaluated in
Clojure before being rendered in the browser. (This doesn't matter a
lot on day 1 but helps with maintainability.)
* The "show me" option makes it easy to try it yourself, or be gently
led by the code.
Better than plain REPL:
* works out of the box
* classpath already correct for fun third-party libs
* IDE setup already done
Better than either:
* Won't fall out of date. Has a test suite, which I run regularly.
* Aspires to be systematic, not just a one-off tutorial on topic A.
(Admittedly not there yet.)
This isn't rocket science, but it is sweating the details. Or it will
be. Make me sweat.

Hi Stuart,
I saw your github repo for this the other day and was intrigued after
you mentioned it in your recent screencast.
After taking a look at it, I quite like what I see, but I'm still a
little perplexed on how it is supposed to be used.
Do you care to enlighten the un-enlightened on the workflow and
benefits of labrepl over some plain html tutorials and a standard
clojure REPL?
R.
