I'm having some trouble getting the figwheel repl working

Once I start figwheel, reloads are happening fine (using devcards!) but I can't access anything from my ns even after calling (in-ns 'myapp.namespace)

the prompt changes to "myapp.namespace=>" but nothing works, just lots of " Use of undeclared Var"

(js/alert "hello") works but not vars that I defined in the ns
