Macro Expanse

Browser (and eventually editor) for lemonade example projects.

Try it in action

Overview

Expanse is to be a collection of code examples demonstrating what is currently called ubik.

The plan is to compile the example code directly in the browser and embed an editor in the page. However, until that comes to pass you’ll need to clone this repo and run figwheel locally, using your editor of choice to play with the code.

Setup

Check It Out

Go to the list on GitHub Pages or using Figwheel and scroll through the examples. Click on an example to open it fullscreen, click again to go back to the index.

Honestly the online version doesn’t do much impressive yet, you’re better off running it in figwheel so you can play with it properly.

With Figwheel

Clone the repo and run

	 $ lein figwheel

In the project root. Open your browser to http://localhost:3449/index.html to see the page.

The example code is in the examples dir at the top level. Each example is a complete clojure project that will run on its own; expanse is just a browser for them.

With the demo running change the drawing code in any of the examples it will be reloaded almost instantly.

Tutorial to come.

Try Your Own Examples

To create your own example project use the lein template

	 $ lein new ubik NAME

Start figwheel in your new project folder and follow the instructions from the previous step.

Caveats

Performance

This is still immature software. The demos here run at 60fps in chrome 61 on a ~4 year old laptop. Firefox 57 runs around 40 fps. YMMV.
