@drewverlee So the short answer is no, I don’t have anything like a feature matrix or anything like that to compare to Spacemacs + CIDER.
It’s generally much easier to set up since it’s all in the box, especially if you’re not familiar with Emacs to begin with.
The main philosophical difference is that Cursive works by source analysis, not REPL introspection (most of the time)
That means that you don’t need a REPL running for basic editing features, and things like global indexing are generally better.
yea. i have been recommending it without actual having used it because i have had a great time with intelliji. > The main philosophical difference is that Cursive works by source analysis, not REPL introspection (most of the time) Ill have to think about that when i’m more awake 🙂
It also means that most of the fancy stuff works equivalently for CLJ and CLJS, which is not true for CIDER.
If you’re familiar with Emacs and you can get it all set up and keep it running, Emacs can currently be made more powerful than Cursive for straight CLJ code.
Code that requires Java interop, or uses CLJS, it depends but I’d say Cursive usually wins.
Thanks a ton for the overview. i would add that to a readme if it doesnt exist. Sense emacs has the majority of users it is probably worth the time.
has anyone had issues with IntelliJ stopping accepting keyboard input? It’s started to happen quite frequently with 2017.3.2 and Cursive 1.6.2-2017.3. I have to close/reopen IntelliJ to fix it, although if I have another IntelliJ project open it’s unaffected. It always happens while I’m typing.
@taylor I had something similar, but was running a Java project. I do use 2017.3.2 so it might be a problem with intelliJ, or still some weird side effect from cursive.
That very occasionally happens to me and drives me nuts. I find I can usually get out off it by closing windows. I have never been able to reproduce it consistently though
Is anybody else noticing a drop in performance around tooltips in the last few builds? It seems like there is a noticeable pause when I hover over like a misspelling warning or similar thing
