Cursive IDE Reviews and details

Social recommendations and mentions

• Let's write a simple microservice in Clojure

  REPL-friendly development setup. DX (dev experience) might not be the best in class, but it is definitely not bad. Whenever you want to change or add something to the codebase, you start a REPL session in an IDE (in my case, Cursive / IntelliJ Idea). You can run code snippets to print their results, change the codebase, and reload the application. In addition, you can selectively run needed tests. You do not need... - Source: dev.to / 11 months ago

• Common Lisp: An Interactive Approach (1992) [pdf]

  It helps when one shells out a license for Cursive, https://cursive-ide.com/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Clojure 1.12.0-Alpha2

  The go to is still Emacs with CIDER however, there are many who are using Visual Studio or Cursive [1] [1]: https://cursive-ide.com/. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

• New Common Lisp IDE for Jetbrains IDES/Intellij - Feedback appreciated

  It is my understanding that Cursive is implemented as a IJ plugin and that most of it is written in Clojure, so that should be a definitive yes. Source: about 2 years ago

• Clojure at the REPL: Data Visualization

  A closer experience to the old Common Lisp commercial IDEs, when using cursive. https://cursive-ide.com/. - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• Why Paul Graham Is Wrong About Choosing an Esoteric Language (2018)

  There is also Cursive, an IntelliJ plugin/distribution. It's commercial though, perhaps why the parent dismissed it. https://cursive-ide.com/. - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• How do you overcome the lack of completion in ClojureScript

  Https://clojure-lsp.io/ can analyze cljs code and provide autocompletion without a live REPL. https://cursive-ide.com/ Is another option if you prefer a full IDE experience. Personally, dabbrev-expand (or hippie-expand) in Emacs covers 80% of my needs for code completion :). Source: almost 3 years ago

• On New IDEs

  I was wondering that what the author and other redditors here would think of/about Cursive, an affordable IDE for Clojure, while they have cider in Emacs as well. Source: over 3 years ago

• Reactive Clojure: You don't need a web framework, you need a web language

  Definitely take a look at Cursive, it may be what you're looking for along the lines of stability and out-of-the-box features you'd see in a Java IDE: https://cursive-ide.com/. - Source: Hacker News / over 3 years ago

• How much can a Clojure developer do alone.

  If you're familiar with the IntelliJ IDE, I highly recommend trying out the Cursive plugin. It makes it really easy to work entirely within your files in the editor sending forms/s-expressions to the REPL for evaluation. Comment blocks (comment ...) are very useful for saving documentation like example code to execute in a REPL. There's also a bunch of very nice keyboard shortcuts for manipulation of forms (slurp,...
