Keeping it Old-Tool: REPL habits of a grug-brained Clojure programmer


Is demo of Grug Clojure code vibe. He no catch onto cloud LLM magics for some reason. Still prefer program with only brain-muscles. Prefer use Grug language standard library and standard dev tools. Prefer make and use all byte on local disk. Maybe luddite, maybe obsolete. Grug no mind. Fine with how he code. Besides, Grug like muscles. Hope maybe you see tip, trick, tactic to steal. Take what can use, no take what no can use.

Build a core muscle memory of manipulating the live Clojure runtime that does not depend on any editor or third-party tool. severely allergic to dependencies half a slot of working memory have to write to think unable to LLM, smol brain no handle big context Add without modifying deps.edn file refactor echo-handler to handle json=true query parameter copy down and replace body (dynamic REPL-driven dev.)
