Visual Studio 2012 - Clojure-CLR to JS

[Eric Greene]

I am interested in helping to build a Visual Studio 2012 extension for Clojure projects as well as a Clojure-CLR to JS compiler...  Support for intellisense, syntax highlight and stuff like that as well...  Has anyone started work on something like this?

Basically, I am looking to create something like Mindscape's Web Workbench CoffeeScript extension but for Clojure.

Thanks!

Eric,

I'm interested in doing the same. The 2010 extension is located at https://github.com/vsClojure/vsClojure by Jon (jmis). However, it hasn't seen many updates recently. The last official binary was a year ago. He has a refactoring branch which his last commit was 3 months ago.

I made a fork of the main branch at https://github.com/speige/vsClojure where I'm trying to add 2012 support & fix some of the previous bugs that have been reported. If I make any progress, I'll ask Jon to merge it into the main branch.

I did upload the 2012 extension to the visual studio gallery, so you can download it and try it out, but I can guarantee it doesn't work well as I've just started to work on this.

If you'd like to contribute, I'm happy to give you access to my GitHub fork.
