Hi, I'm happy to release a tiny Clojure/Script library called scope-capture . https://github.com/alvalval/scope-capture Loosely speaking, scope-capture makes it trivial to reproduce from the REPL the context of a piece of code after it executed

I believe there was a Clojure programming environment released exactly for this... but can't see to find it on Google. I too believe it is great for beginners, except for maybe 2 aspects: - if Clojure is your first language, the 2nd language is likely to be painful :) - I heard feedback a

We can see from this discussion that several strongly opinionated visions of what documentation should be coexist. Some want literate programming whereas others want to avoid it, some want something that looks like javadoc, some just want markdown, etc. I think we can just make room for all of
