Had my presentation about cljs yesterday, and one of the questions that came up was "how does figwheel work?". I realised that I don't actually know 😄 So, how does it work? In a few words? @bhauman

I guess what confused people is that cljs is supposed to compile to js, but I can still somehow manipulate the state of the application from the REPL

@kauko: the REPL compiles the ClojureScript and then ships it off to the browser for evaluation and then returns the result of the evaluation for printing in the REPL

People loved figwheel by the way 😉 Even the scala and elm guys were very impressed

Sweet! 🙂
