I personally wouldn’t change the content of that guide – I would just rename it, or qualify the name – maybe its a quick “exploration” of cljs.build.api and cljs.repl. It was more of a quick **restart** for me, just yesterday, someone who had used CLJS for a lot of learning projects 1.5y ago, and had definitely “leaned” on lein (and then boot, and git clone) too much. I was trying the same old approach the other day, learning how to use cljs-lambda, and just running into hair-pulling build problems, ultimately probably b/c of some ignorance around the fundamentals. The quick-start guide has done a GREAT job of fixing that.
