Installation

Visual Studio Code

Although there are other tools out there like Cursive we recommend using Visual Studio Code and its plugin Calva since both tools are free.

Install the latest version of VSCode

Calva plugin

The Calva plugin is an addon for VSCode that will add Clojure support to the IDE.

Select "View -> Extensions" and search for Calva

Make sure you have the editor built and setup at least once.

• Open the Visual Studio Code app in the defold/editor folder
• Open the command palette (<kbd>CMD+SHIFT+P</kbd>kbd>) in VSCode
• Choose Calva: Start a project REPL and Connect (aka Jack-in
• Choose Leiningen
