Clojurians Log v2

finally managed to upgrade to ubuntu 20.04.2 and my javafx is now working.

Anyone have suggestions for a data browser to use? rebl? portal? other?

portal uses no javafx

rebl does use javafx

ah, that explains why portal is working then 🙂

I might still have to fix my javafx problem then

well, still looking for data browser recommendations 😄

Maybe try a different jdk? adoptopenjdk? graalvm?

must be java 11 of course

I'm on openjdk 11 atm

I had no issues with running javafx under adoptopenjdk > 13, but it kinda depends on the version of the dependency of the particular app whether it works (on ubuntu 20.04)

didn't seem worth it when I was stuck on ubuntu 18.04

I'd foolishly forgotten about reveal https://vlaaad.github.io/reveal/#give-it-a-try

which also seems to work and is javafx

(from the look of the downloaded deps)

I like Portal better atm

It offers the same as Reveal, but the way it lays out the data works better for me.

(of course, usual caveats apply - what works for me, may not work for you, yada yada 🙂 )

And it works with #babashka :)

hmm maybe i should get out of my grumpy old man rut and try some of these new-fangled data browsers... might have made my debugging experience a bit nicer yesterday

what about portal vs rebl? (good to get even just "I liked this" experience reports)

@otfrom There is a Apropos Podcast (video really) about portal, might be nice to watch
