Hello, I am working on a DSL for a non-technical crowd hosted in Clojure. The first major hurdle for my users to tackle would be installing Clojure, a text-editor, and learning the workflow. I'd like to make this as easy as possible, so I'm considering a web app solution instead of a desktop app. I am envisioning something like tryclojure, but with the ability to edit/save/open files in a JavaScript editor.
I wanted to ask two questions of the community: a) What options are available for hosted Clojure (i.e. not a VPS)? I am aware of the Google App Engine. Are there others? (as a sub- question: if GAE is the only game in town, do people have a preferrence over the various packages available on github (app-magic, appengine-clj, others)? b) Are there any open source projects/sites out there where users are directly writing and executing Clojure (outside of tryclojure)? Finally, if you think I am going about this all wrong and should provide a more conventional desktop application, tell me why. Are there tools available to neatly package an editor and REPL? I doubt my users will be invested in a particular editor in advance, so shipping one is certainly an option.
