Mike Zamansky has another video up in his Using Emacs Series<\/a>. This video is a little different from his usual fare in that it\u2019s more about using ClojureScript<\/a> than Emacs, although Emacs does play a prominent role.<\/p>\n

If you follow Zamansky\u2019s blog you know that he\u2019s been learning and experimenting with Clojure and ClojureScript lately. This video is his effort the flatten the learning curve a bit for other n00bs by explaining some of the things he had trouble figuring out. I know nothing<\/a> about ClojureScript so I can\u2019t comment intelligently on the content of the video but I did find it interesting.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t do much front end work either so I also don\u2019t know a lot about writing HTML or generating Web pages. What I found especially interesting about the video was how easy it is to make, debug, and try experimental changes with ClojureScript. If I were going to start writing Web apps, I\u2019m pretty sure I\u2019d prefer learning and using ClojureScript over learning and using JavaScript. Using Cider<\/a> means that once you\u2019ve got everything installed, you can work entirely in Emacs. It\u2019s a lot like using Slime<\/a> except that your \u201coutput\u201d is going to your browser, which updates in real time as you make changes. It looks like a very comfortable environment in which to do interactive programming.<\/p>\n

Depending on feedback, Zamansky may do some more videos on ClojureScript so if you\u2019re interested, be sure to let him know in the comments. The video is 33 minutes, 42 seconds so you\u2019ll need to schedule some time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
