I've been thinking, and decided that I will not apply to GSoC this year, because I will not have enough time to devote to it this summer. I really like both the html-REPL idea and the live-editor idea, and I think they would be great tools for the clojure-community to have, so I will definitely

Hi again! I've played around a little with Chris Grangers editor and changed it into a simple repl. The code is on github: https://github.com/dentrado/cljs-repl If the return value is a HTMLElement or a JQuery object it gets attached to the repl-div. try: ($ "" (map->js {:src "http://html5dem

Yes a visual interactive repl would be really useful. Perhaps you could have two modes, a traditional repl mode that displays the result of what you send to the repl and an immediate mode that replaces/modifies the last output when you modify the code that generated it. This should make it possible

I've been working on this, and related permutations, for a few months. My thoughts on this (from a month ago) are at http://groups.google.com/group/clojure-tools/browse_thread/thread/f0ef25f5489b4554?pli=1 along with some commentary by others on related tools. Will try to get something sensible o

Martin, This sounds like a fantastic idea, and as Zack said very Mathematica like. We have ClojureScript so building a very powerful cross-platform graphical environment is very much in reach. It also seems that WebKit can integrate easily with Java applications? While building a simple Bret Vict

I think you would probably have the most meaningful success if you focused on making things that let people teach themselves Clojurescript. Making the editor intuitive for beginners would be a major win. Allowing them to visualize data structures and algorithms that they have written in Clojure

GSoC: Browser-based Clojure(Script) editor

2012-03-22 Thread Martin Forsgren
Hello! I am thinking of applying to GSoC and I found the proposal to continue working on Chris Grangers Clojure(script)-editor in "Bret Victor- style" really interesting. I have some ideas on features that I think would be nice to have, other than opening, saving and compiling files: Visualizatio
