VS Code + Calva extension works really well. If you like the IntelliJ family of IDE's, https://cursive-ide.com is available. If minimalism is your thing then Sublime Text (With the https://clojure-lsp.github.io/clojure-lsp/clients/ installation) is also a possibility.

basically whatever editor you use right now has a plugin for clojure. If you don’t have a favorite editor yet VSCode + calva is probably the easiest to get started.

Emacs + Clojure LSP

if you’re new in general, I recommend atom + chlorine. It’s simple and works very well. The biggest thing is just having an editor that easily connects to a REPL. After that, it’s mostly personal preference.

@U8QBZBHGD emacs with?

Cursive

Cursive for 3+ years now.

emacs + cider

@U8QBZBHGD can you send me an guide to setup clojure env in doom-emacs?

Thank you, will look into it!

I'm late to the party, but would like to hear from experienced people. For people using cursive, I'm facing issue in the IDE resolving the js imports coming from package.json. i.e., When using shadow-cljs along with package.json, the code runs and works fine. But the IDE is not able to figure out the dependencies coming from package.json. (Ofcourse, shadow.cljs is also having issues, but I can workaround it with npx shadow-cljs pom .) How are you overcoming this issue?

VScode + Calva is very smooth experience. I shifted to it after facing few issue with Emacs (spacemacs) setup
