Before You Start with Spacemacs and Clojure development
Install Emacs
Spacemacs is a communiy driven configuration for Emacs, so you need to install Emacs before you can use Spacemacs.
Minimum Emacs Version - 25.1
This guide used the develop version of Spacemacs which requires Emacs 25.1 or greater
Install Clojure
This guide uses Leiningen as the project automation tool for Clojure. It will help you create and run projects, as well as create build assets (jars) for deployment. This guide should also work for the Clojure CLI tools or boot build tools
Clojure is a hosted language, so requires a Java Virtual Machine (JVM), provided by installing the Java JRE or Java SDK.
