After trying for days to re-enable ClojureDocs in Emacs, I was finally pushed toward VS Code/Calva. After years of Emacs devotion. And wow. For one: hovering over symbols brings up ClojureDocs, right out of the box. A minor thing to need in the big scheme of things, but what I was wrestling with, so a relief to see. Huge gratitude to the Calva team. And hello.
interesting, https://clojure-lsp.io/features/#documentation-and-clojuredocs-integration comes from clojure-lsp and both emacs and calva uses it 😅
(that print actually is my Emacs hehe)
Actually… 😃 Calva has two sources for the Clojuredocs in hovers. clojure-lsp and cider-nrepl. A bit depending, one or the other will be used.
Hum, curious when the cider-nrepl one makes sense to be used
It was there when clojure-lsp started to provide. It is more of a Calva + cider-nrepl thing, with some features for bringing the examples into the editor and such.

@pez could you take a look please? I'm adding this to all editor plugins
Grok summarized Calva’s changelog. Lot’s and lots of words, then concluded: > Calva’s changelog isn’t just a list of updates—it’s a story of growth, resilience, and a relentless drive to make Clojure development better. And as of April 2025, it’s still going strong, ready for whatever’s next.
