Nice work! I'm a long-time emacs user who thought that emacs was the best way to write clojure code. I was really happy with emacs as a clojure dev environment but after trying cursive recently it's now my preferred environment for writing clojure.

What made you switch? I mean, if you are already familiar with Emacs, I don't see any reason to switch. CIDER and clj-refactor offer a lot more functionality, and the debugger is fantastic.
When I was using emacs, I would spend a good chunk of time maintaining my editor, not coding. Cursive Just Works, and as a consultant it means I can put my full time into client work.
