Which other extensions besides Calva would you recommend? I am going through the poly tutorial and I have seen that I do not have some of the features available in the IntelilJ + Cursive combo.

I doubt there are any extensions that can cover the gap between Calva and Cursive. But maybe when it is IntelliJ features that there are configuration and extensions that can help. Are there any specific features you wonder about?

It's nothing important, it's rather laziness 😄. I never used IDEA + Cursive but in the poly tutorial I could see something like New &gt; Clojure Namespace. The prompt "Clojure Deps projects need to be imported Import Changes". Or If I create a new clojure file the namespace is not added automatically. I do not expect Calva to do all this stuff, that is why I hopped that there are also other extension that could be helpful besides Calva.

> If I create a new clojure file the namespace is not added automatically. This is actually supposed to work. I don't know why it sometimes fails, but it could be that something is lacking for clojure-lsp to properly understand the project.

In a sense Calva is all about catering for our laziness. 😃 I didn't read your question as demands or anything. To me it is a perfect opportunity to learn about what Calva could be doing better.

As for general extensions... My main recommendations: I use Chronicler for quickly recording the VS Code window. Code Spell Checker to helps me compensate for my (slight) dyslexia, I have Error Lens to quickly see clj-kondo's help. And (perhaps unsurprisingly) I use #joyride to add functionality that VS Code and extensions have forgotten to give me.

Thx for the Info! I will take a look at the extensions. Code Spell Checker is a default for me 🙂 .

Thx for the Info! I have it installed even if I do not make use of it at the moment 🙂.
