As a data point, I have found the Counterclockwise plugin with Eclipse to be excellent. My criteria for this are: - It works as a full IDE environment, no need to task switch to other tools - No obvious features lacking that limit your productivity - Good integration with Java code and tooling, which I also use extensively Features I like: - A convenient integrated REPL with lots of shortcuts to quickly execute code - A good syntax-highlighted editor with various navigation tools (e.g. the Namespace Browser) - The paredit functionality is very good (does everything I need, at least....) - Excellent integration with Java projects, to the extent that polyglot Java/Clojure projects are perfectly possible - Great integrations with tools (I use Git and Maven mostly) My main niggle is that Leiningen integration isn't as complete or easy as it could be. But I use Maven anyway, so it isn't really a big deal except for when I want to build other peoples' leiningen-based projects. -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
