Think of LT as something more akin to an editor in spirit - you won't see watch windows and all the craziness you often see in "big" IDE's. In that regard, you use it like you use any editor. If you're working with Clojure, ClojureScript, or Javascript code, however, you can evaluate a block inline by pressing Cmd-Enter (or Ctrl-Enter).

Now that we have an experience we plan to stick with more documentation and getting started content will be coming in the next few days. :)

EDIT: I didn't think about SVN, we do filter out Git, but this should just be customizable. Added an issue for it [1].

.pyc files also seem to be showing up.

I've opened a python file, typed 1 + 1 and hit Ctrl+Enter and it doesn't seem to do anything.


eval is only for Clojure, ClojureScript, Javascript, and CSS right now


Evaling CSS? What is computed?


"eval" in the CSS case just means injected into the context. Nothing gets computed :)


Chris, are you planning to submit a demo for LIVE 2013?



rumor has it I'll be keynoting :)


Awesome, looking forward to that!

I'm doing my best to bring my IDE demo up to speed, it's just a month left now but still so much to do... >.<
