An introduction to the new multi-REPL session support in Calva, allowing multiple concurrent REPL connections in VS Code.

The one-project-repl-per-window limitation in Calva is finally gone. Download latest Calva and you will get the new REPL Sessions Menu. Calva will connect any number of REPLs, and auto-route from your project files to the right REPL session. The system is highly configurable, with defaults that should take you pretty far.

Enjoy! ♥️ Calva is an easy to use Clojure and ClojureScript IDE for Visual Studio Code. calva.io/ github.com/BetterThanTomorrow/calva marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=betterthantomorr…

But when Calva forced me to have four windows opened to manage a project with Clojure, ClojureScript, Babashka, Joyride, and Scittle, I had ha…
