[ANN] lein-4clj

[Alex Engelberg]

4clojure is a great site for practicing various datatypes and concepts in Clojure. However, the code editor on the website is somewhat limited, mostly because it doesn't have a REPL to test out individual parts of your code. I'm not affiliated with 4clojure in any way, but I've created a leiningen plugin for working on 4clojure problems in the comfort of your own IDE.

See the readme for more information and examples.

Enjoy!

Can you explain the difference between this and https://github.com/bfontaine/lein-fore-prob? I haven't really looked since back when https://github.com/broquaint/lein-foreclojure-plugin was new (in lein 1!), but it seems like there is a lein2 plugin already.

[Alex Engelberg]

Admittedly these two libraries are very similar; I actually hadn't heard about lein-fore-prob before (because it wasn't listed on the leiningen plugin list wiki).

Because I started working on this without knowledge of the other library, it naturally has a few differences; one of which is that it creates separate files while lein-fore-prob puts all the problems into one file (unless multiple projects are created). Also, lein-4clj supports project-less template creation, allowing for a quicker workflow if a 4clojure user wants to quickly try out a solution using the REPL.

Anyhow, the two projects are similar and serve essentially the same purpose, so feel free to use whichever you'd like.
