@thheller thanks. that hint led to me notice that promesa bundles bluebird and an externs file. so I added :compiler-options {:externs ["bluebird/externs.js"]} and that fixed it.

and congrats on the clj-together funding too. you earn all that and more with your efforts to help us

@thheller: do you have some other ideas about what I can do to get back the REPL for Calva development?

:node-library 😛

I’m almost ready to do that, but losing the name spacing is not alluring at all.

I'm in troubleshooting mode anyways so I can try something

You want to experiment on your side or remote control me like we did yesterday? 😃

Here’s the dev how-to of Calva development anyway: https://github.com/BetterThanTomorrow/calva/wiki/How-to-Contribute
