Clojurians Log v2

So, I´ll start try using boot, can I use lein templates? How do I use something like reagent-template in boot?

@fabrao boot-new will use lein-templates (if no boot-template exists with that name) but the generated project will look however the author of the template wrote it (i.e., project.clj or build.boot per their choice).

See https://github.com/boot-clj/boot-new @fabrao

so, after that, do I have to convert project.clj to build.boot? Because I tried it for reagent but it generated lein project.clj.

@fabrao I don't know if there is a Boot-based template for Reagent apps.

As I said, the type of project you get will depend on the template you use -- and the author's choice of build tool.

Mostly it's fairly straightforward to convert project.clj to build.boot -- but if it's ClojureScript-based, you'll need to get advice from other folks here as I know next to nothing about cljs...

I just ran a "new" with the reagent template and there's a lot of stuff in that project.clj so I'm not sure what a Boot version would look like @fabrao -- and I must admit I'm a bit surprised there isn't a Boot version of it.

@seancorfield that is because I didn´t migrate to boot yet, it is too complicate for me until now try converting it to boot

@seancorfield Now I understand the benefit of using boot. Everything is dynamic. Adding dependency and evaluate set-env! again, it will load it. I can integrate with my code and use it in deftask as normal clojure is very useful. Is that boot startup faster than lein?

Well, Boot only starts a single JVM whereas Leiningen starts two (one for itself and a second, independent JVM for your application).

But you're more likely to add runtime dependencies and extra code to your build.boot file once you start using it heavily and that will slow it down a bit 🙂

Well, until now, I did same thing as lein project and the startup time is faster than lein
