Things to be done with Calva - BetterThanTomorrow/calva GitHub Wiki

The major themes are:

• Documentation
• Squash Bugs
• The Right Features
• Development Workflow
• Code Maintainability

Documentation

• The Calva settings (which ones are not documented on the wiki?)
• Replace some outdated GIFs used in the README.

Squash Bugs

• The REPL window can't handle large output. Ideas:
  • Fix the performance issues (might be a tricky job)
  • Truncate large output in the REPL window and print it in an untitled Clojure-enabled editor window instead.
  • Add option to print stdout somewhere else
  • Implement something like CIDER inspect: https://github.com/BetterThanTomorrow/calva/issues/228
  • Make it super easy to use Calva with Reveal
• Formatter needs to merge latest cljfmt

The Right Features

• Enable using nrepl in streaming mode (is this not done, yet?)
  • Use this for the test runner
• Better connection life-cycle control fo shadow-cljs. Either:
  1. Tap in to the shadow message bus (THeller said that there is such a thing that we can query about what shadow-cljs is doing.)
• Consider supporting Reveal out-of-the-box.
• Add even more Calva extension context statuses and use it for more precise command and shortcut enablements.
• Re-enable results in hover

Development Workflow

• Write an issues template

Code Maintainability

• Organize Calva functionality in ”components”, more like we do with calva-fmt, ParEdit, and Clojure Warrior.
• Get better control of REPL session state.
• Clean up extra messy parts of the code. Candidates:
  • The evaluations module
  • The annotations module (this is particularly brittle)
