So, you can dynamically load libraries in the running REPL I presume? That’s interesting. It’s possible with nREPL to some extent, but it’s a bit painful that’s why I opted not to support it directly in CIDER. At least it used to be painful. 🙂

Yes. It’s used in 2 ways: to load additional nrepl actions and to load user code (both in jars or local files in durs). So you can load and reload a local ns from a remote server.

The client may choose to have multiple auxs if some tooling actions are long and blocking.

I liked the subtle plug at the end 🙂

I was going through clojureD lightning talks and saw this: https://github.com/AvramRobert/omnia a terminal base REPL, it seems to have some good features implemented, might be interested to look at

Looks cool for sure

We should let him know about the hack day.

I dropped him a mail.
