In plain words
Nightlight is a code editor designed to run directly within Clojure projects. It allows developers to write and edit Clojure code in an integrated environment rather than using separate external editors. The tool is built specifically for the Clojure programming language ecosystem, making it suitable for developers working on Clojure applications who prefer an embedded editing experience. Its in-project design distinguishes it from traditional standalone code editors.

Talanoa▲343Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself.
