Workshop: Developing Clojure with Spacemacs (Emacs + Cider + clj-refactor...)

A SkillsCast for this session is not available.

http://spacemacs.org/

The workshop will go through all the major parts of Spacemacs (mainly CIDER & clj-refactor) that relate to Clojure development and any supporting tips & tricks.

• Adding the Clojure layer

• Running the REPL & evaluating code

• Running tests & test reports

• Structural editing (smartparens/paredit fun)

• Emacs cool stuff (multiple cursors, kill-ring / visual undo)

• Clojure docs, auto-completion, snippets

• Clojure refactoring with clj-refactor

• Clojurescript repl configuration (if there is interest)

• Org-mode for project documentation, literate programming & presentations (optional)

• debugging basics (I rarely use the debugger so if anyone is willing to show how they use the debugger, please let me know).

Pre-requisites

Emacs version 25.1 or greater installed and any existing emacs.d configuration moved and backed up (if you want to keep it).

-Leiningen version 2.7.1 or greater should be installed from leiningen.org (or via homebrew on Mac if you prefer)

If you want to maintain your own Emacs + CIDER + clj-refactor + [paredit / smartparens] + autocomplete setup, then 95% of the workshop will still apply.
