How to run the Clojure REPL from Emacs after setting up .emacs.d folder

Question

I'm new to Emacs so its all a bit new to me. I got a hang of the basics of Emacs like navigation,etc. I was trying to install a Clojure REPL in Emacs, i cloned a .emacs repo and replaced .emacs with it. I opened up Emacs again, i'm at a loss as to how to fire up the clojure REPL.

this is the .emacs repo i'm using.

Thank you.

Folder Name

Just to clarify, you want the repo you cloned to be called .emacs.d . It should contain an elisp file called init.el , which Emacs will run on startup.

Starting a REPL

For this configuration, you should be able to use Mx nrepl-jack-in to start a repl.

To be honest, I recommend you use one of the publicly-maintained emacs configurations rather than someone's personal settings (which they may change or break at any time). Emacs Prelude and Emacs Live have good Clojure settings.
