So long as you have leiningen installed.

That isn't always trivial.

Sure it is: you can just download and run the script they have on their site: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/technomancy/leiningen/stab...

I’m not sure I understood your comment. Parent’s code block has two lines: the first one installs Leiningen; the second one starts its repl.

What I meant is, so long as you have an updated version of leiningen readily available.

This is just another layer in the toolchain to contend with, and since Clojure is built on the JVM, the toolchain is already quite bloated.

leiningen also updates itself.
