gol

This is the gol project.

Development mode

To start the Figwheel compiler, navigate to the project folder and run the following command in the terminal:

lein figwheel

Figwheel will automatically push cljs changes to the browser. The server will be available at http://localhost:3449 once Figwheel starts up.

Figwheel also starts nREPL using the value of the :nrepl-port in the :figwheel config found in project.clj. By default the port is set to 7002.

The figwheel server can have unexpected behaviors in some situations such as when using websockets. In this case it's recommended to run a standalone instance of a web server as follows:

lein do clean, run

The application will now be available at http://localhost:3000.

Optional development tools

Start the browser REPL:

$ lein repl

The Jetty server can be started by running:

(start-server)

and stopped by running:

(stop-server)

Building for release

lein do clean, uberjar
