We assume you are familiar with ClojureScript tooling and you have your machine in a good shape running recent versions of java, maven, leiningen, etc.

• clone this repo somewhere:

  git clone https://github.com/jazzytomato/hnlookup.git
  cd hnlookup
  

• it gets built into resources/unpacked/compiled folder.

  In one terminal session run:

  lein dev
  

  if you want it to have the hot reload with figwheel, you will need to add the plugin lein-figwheel but I use figwheel-sidecar within cursive (see instructions below)

• use latest Chrome Canary with Custom Formatters enabled

• open Chrome Canary and add resources/unpacked via "Load unpacked extension..."

• add a run configuration under Run/Edit Configurations

• Under clojure REPL, click + and select Use clojure.main in normal JVM process with parameters "scripts/repl.clj"

To all the authors and contributors of the libraries I use but especially for the chromex library and chromex-sample boilerplate
