We've released cljbox2d, an idiomatic Clojure/ClojureScript wrapper for the jBox2D/Planck.js physics engines, with some helpers to combine it with Quil. See the README for how to run the demos. Documentation is still a bit sparse but there's example code to start from. Happy to answer questions in #quil https://github.com/lambdaisland/cljbox2d

@U1EP3BZ3Q also demonstrated how to use it with Clojure2D! https://github.com/Clojure2D/clojure2d-examples/tree/master/src/box2d

Love seeing the ecosystem grow like this : )

Following our discussion at #visual-tools meeting 3 (the video will be public soon), here is an experiment combining Portal, Clerk, Kindly, and nREPL in one flow. It demonstrates using one Clojure namespace and comfortably visualizing it in different tools (Portal and Clerk in this case), without any need of code change. https://github.com/scicloj/visual-tools-experiments/tree/main/portal-clerk-kindly-nrepl-1

Looks interesting! The link to Kindly is dead, though.

fixed, thanks 🙏

(fixed, forgot it was a private repo) 🙏
