Working with Projects

Techniques to work specifically with Clojure projects as well as any concept of a project, e.g. a local git repository or using .projectile file to manually define a project.

Spacemacs gives you several options for managing the files in your project and you will use commands from the following menus

File menu

Find, copy, delete, rename, sudo-edit, bookmark and browse files.

Read Open and Create files section for more details.

Buffer menu

list, show and delete buffers. A buffer is a container for file content and any other text and images (if images support is included in your Emacs install)

Read the Managing Buffers section for more details.

Project (Projectile) menu

find files and search/replace text in the current project (e.g. local git project or arbitrary .projectile defined project) and many other project specific functions.

Read the Projectile section for more details.

Layouts

Layouts providing an easy way to group buffers together, for projects or any arbitrary grouping you decide.

Read the Layouts and Workspaces section for more details.

File browsers / managers

Treemacs and Ranger are file managers that help you browse through files and directories.
