LightTable has a plugin for live Markdown rendering which I find very useful. So useful in fact that I created a plugin for live Textile rendering based on it :) Sean On Apr 17, 2014, at 11:18 AM, Brian Craft wrote: > Is there a standard workflow, lein plugin, or such, for building/serving a

If you just want to preview the docs, Emacs has a markdown-mode - http://jblevins.org/projects/markdown-mode/. I can type C-c C-c p when editing my README.md, and a properly formatted version comes up in Firefox. On 17 April 2014 19:31, Andrey Antukh wrote: > Hi. > > Personally I don't know any s

Hi. Personally I don't know any standard way to document clojure libraries, but if you want generic documentation tool, asciidoc works very well. Examples: http://niwibe.github.io/buddy/ http://niwibe.github.io/django-pgjson/ Greetings. Andrey 2014-04-17 20:18 GMT+02:00 Brian Craft : > Is t

One thing I forgot to mention: it'd be nice to have Marginalia support, since it can be used not only for annotated source code, but also for documentation with embedded tests (although, two-column layout doesn't fit very well for this purpose, but it's another question). > That's true. The

It's a great initiative indeed, but I found the project pretty useless in its current state. Forking the repo and sending a pull request just to add an example is painful. Also, I can read rendered readme on github (and have the source code at hand), so why go to another site? I think what woul

Hi all, I was looking for a way to: * encourage folks to write docs for their Clojure projects * make usage examples available (like clojuredocs.org has, but for general Clojure-related projects) * help semi-standardize how Clojure projects are documented So I made this: http://www.unexpe
