Hello all,

When setting up Vim for Clojure development, I came across several blog
posts that recommended using fireplace.vim alongside vim-clojure-static.
However, I noticed that tpope recommends using his own vim-salve with
fireplace.vim and makes no mention of vim-clojure-static.

It seems (to me, someone with very little experience with Clojure) that
both plugins do the same job. Furthermore, vim-salve's latest commit
was in November of 2019, while vim-clojure-static's was in October of
2017. While I know that this isn't a great metric of a project's
viability, and that either or both could very well be considered
"finished," none of the blog posts I referenced were particularly
recent, and I couldn't help but wonder if they hadn't taken the
apparently newer vim-salve into account.

Which one should I install? Should I use both? Thanks in advance.

vim-clojure-static provides things like syntax highlighting and
indenting. It's included with Vim these days, you probably don't need
to install it.

vim-salve does project-y stuff. It has little to no overlap with
vim-clojure-static.

Thanks for your response. Glad there are folks out there who are
willing to help. I'm really digging Fireplace and Salve both, by the
way. Thanks for those!
