Xecle - rethinking spreadsheet

Xecle is about rethinking how spreadsheet works.

Development

Setup

1. Install leiningen
2. Install python-pip
3. pip install nodeenv
4. . env/bin/active 5.. npm install electron -g --save-dev
5. lein deps
6. lein descjop-externs

Development mode

1. . env/bin/active
2. lein descjop-figwheel to bring up app window running compiled Javascript

CSS-compilation

Styling is done in LESS, located in style.main.less (and corresponding minimized file).

To compile it into CSS files, run lein descjop-once-dev.

It's unfortunate that we can't yet pull off real-time compilation and see it right away, so we gotta run this before lein descjop-figwheel.

Production mode

1. electron app/prod

Architecture

• Electron for GUI layer.
• ClojureScript for Javascript.
• Descjop to glue ClojureScript with Electron.
