So there's 2 points that I raised. The main one is getting the *@import*working. And I probably just need to see an example of how to do that in the API. With that, I'd probably move over to hiccup / garden.
Wrt garden-watch <https://github.com/twashing/garden-watch>, I understand and agree with your rationale. However, I can think of at least 2 considerations where a user of the tool may not want to enter the repl. 1. A user in some other language wants a simple tool from which they can generate HTML or CSS. For example, when I use guard and it's plugins (see here <https://github.com/guard/guard-haml> and here<https://github.com/hawx/guard-sass>), it doesn't force my project to use Ruby. And we shouldn't make that imposition on others. 2. If I have a designer building out solely my HTML / CSS, I'd like her to just edit edn, and have corresponding code generated. No need for her to dive into a repl unnecessarily. But again, for my immediate needs, point 2 is secondary. I just need @import and those other edge cases working. I still think inlining raw CSS is a good idea, for just seeing which use cases garden misses.
