Amazing project!<p>>While the JVM solves lots of hard problems, it has one major weakness, the UI libraries provided by the JVM (Swing and JavaFX) are clunky and dated.<p>I also feel this; it's what puts me off writing GUI apps in Clojure. I have hope that natively compiled Clojure implementations like Jank that could interact with C or C++ libraries could help with this.
This sounds very close to my dream IDE, I've always wanted to build a smalltalk + emacs like editor/ide in Clojure but never got around to it.<p>I wanted to try Easel but there were no instructions how. This is how I got it running:<p><pre><code> git clone git@github.com:phronmophobic/easel.git
clj -X:deps prep
clj
# now in repl
=> ((requiring-resolve 'com.phronemophobic.easel/run))</code></pre>
Hey, this is absolutely amazing
