| I learned Clojure + Emacs + Evil-mode + nrepl.el at the same time a few months ago and haven't really changed anything about my workflow since then. This is how I start Emacs: * Open emacs
* `c-x c-f` to navigate to and open my clj file
* `c-c m-j` to start nrepl session (opens up in a pane split)
* `c-w h/j/k/l` to move between windows
* `m-x find-file-in-project` (I mapped to `;a`) to navigate to
other clj files in the git project
And this is my workflow once I have source file and nrepl split-panes open: * Edit code
* `c-x c-e` to eval the expression above cursor
* `c-c c-k` to eval entire source buffer
* `m-hyphen c-c c-z` to load source file
namespace into nrepl window which I rarely do
I actually rarely use the repl window since you can eval code in the source file.* I pretty much treat my source file as my repl and use `c-x c-e` to execute the previous form. (Screenshot: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/51836583/Screenshots/l0.png) * Also, I'll often put the code I'm trying to get to work like `(my-func 1 2 3)` at the bottom of my source file. Then, while I'm hacking on `my-func`'s implementation, I mash `c-c c-k` (eval buffer) which returns the result of the last expression in the file. * Another nice way to utilize `c-c c-k` is to put your `(assert (= (my-func 1 2 3) 42))` tests right into the source file. The tests will get run every time you eval the buffer. It's a solid test-driven loop baked into the core library!
