Instead, we will simply release what has been done since the last release. Regular ReleasesĪs the number of maintainers and contributors of Light Table can highly vary, as well as their availability, we will no longer be making firm commitments as to what will be in each release. Since there have not been any releases this has not been an issue, but will be in the future.
#Lighttable vs atom update#
Not that you would notice if 0.8.1 was your first encounter with Light Table, but it used to be possible to update Light Table when a new version was released. We will be either merging or closing them. A few of them have been lingering for some time. There are a number of outstanding pull requests. Should this occur, we will provide advanced notice. Note: Expect possible breaking changes to plugins due to these updates. Once Clojurescript is updated then the Electron update will be handled, finally followed by CodeMirror. The out of date dependencies have caused stagnation and are blocking significant possible improvements. They are also fantastic and deserve to be at the latest. They are fundamental to our project and require a deep knowledge of Light Table internals to update. We adopted these technologies while they were young and there has since been breaking changes. Our Clojurescript version is badly out of date. The User Guide has been ported over to Gitbook from, merged with some wiki pages, and is undergoing updates before we replace the current User Guide. Our API docs site will now render with markdown. I have been pursuing documentation for the API. Magnus has produced a great guide for the Elm plugin and is spearheading work on the Developer Guide. We intend to take a three-pronged approach towards documentation: Documentation is one of our highest priorities. It has been an ongoing need for a long time and a constant pain point. Rather than spend effort maintaining our current user docs, we are migrating all guides and tutorials to Gitbook. Let us be clear: If these tasks are not met then the project will continue to stagnate. Few are willing to spend hours frustrated over something that should be trivial. Essentially, we need to make working on, and contributing to, Light Table easier. Work in the short term is about documenting, updating, and stabilizing Light Table. The Core team: Magnus, Gabriel and myself ( Scott), have discussed these steps which fall under two main categories: Immediate Future and After That. Light Table has grown quiet as of late and we aim to bring a much needed update on what our next steps are. The issues section on the main LT repo would be This repo will store all the issues and this will be the place, where feature requests I’ve created a new repo in Light Table called townhall.
#Lighttable vs atom series#
Hopefully, by the end of April, we can cut a new release.Īdditionally, I’ll be updating this blog series on my progress, weekly so that, LT users,Ĭan know beforehand about some regression or feature enhancement. I’ll speed up developing process during this April, as I’ll be working somewhat full-time We love of LT, is affected while updating ClojureScript. The current road-blocking problem I’mįacing is not of electron but of ClojureScript. Have undergone tremendous changes since then. LT uses 0.0-2138 version of ClojureScript and 0.34.5 version of Electron. Now, while updating LT, these are the three crucial updates(not in that order): To help me categorize the issues so, that I can focus on updating LT.
So, I started to work on LT mostly during weekends, I added as a collaborator, LT, was our common goal, Scott decided to pass the torch, and make me the new Update, I began to notice, larger problems.
There weren’t harder problems to update LT. I created a pull request, and notified the current maintainer Scott, I thought, Since, LT is a wonderful editor, I decided to update it. So, at the end of ‘18, I decided to give back to the community and contribute to LT, So, I decided to use Light Table, whileĭownloading it, I noticed the same old version, which I had used. I had to write Clojure in a friend’s machine and I didn’t Projects, I found Vim productive and have been using it. While starting to learn Clojure andĬlojure/script couple of years back, I found out Light Table.(Though, I was an emacs Most of the early users of Light Table have left Light Table and taken sanctuary in It’s even been 2 years to lastīy Scott Bauer in which Scott had awesome plans to continue development of I don’t want to start on mentioning the advances on La La JS land,īecause it’s too much. Vscode has developed from 0.10.6 to 1.32.0.Īmazing development happened in La La Clojure Land too, Clojure evolved from The last time a major release of Light Table was in early 2016.ģ years is a lot in developers time.
