Arc REPL in emacs using cider-mode (youtube.com)

There's no audio, so it's probably a bit hard to follow. I just wanted to throw together a quick demo of the Arc tooling I've been working on.

I implemented the nREPL protocol in Arc. This video shows cider-mode interacting with it (via `cider-connect`).

There's awesome audio... I watched it a second time just for the audio!

To what end, might I ask? i.e. are you planning to contribute this to the arc community? Is this something the community can leverage with their own tooling?

I could have other questions, but if it's not something I can use or look at then they become somewhat pointless (the questions, that is).

Looks wonderful! Thanks for exposing me to some new keywords ("nrepl", "cider-mode")

This is super cool. I'd love to have this for Emacs! Can you share what you've got? Maybe a complete config from `emacs -Q`?

And if anyone's ever in NYC, I co-organize the Emacs NYC meetup group. Would love to see y'all.

I intend to. It has taken some time due to some unexpected issues with unicode handling that were recently resolved with https://github.com/arclanguage/anarki/pull/135

I'll do a Show Arc soon with some tooling for the community, including nREPL support.
