- Prepare a project by resolving dependencies, downloading libraries, and making/caching classpaths:

`clj -P`

- Start an nREPL server with the CIDER middleware:

`clj -Sdeps '{:deps {nrepl {:mvn/version "0.7.0"} cider/cider-nrepl {:mvn/version "0.25.2"}}}' -m nrepl.cmdline --middleware '["cider.nrepl/cider-middleware"]' --interactive`

- Start a REPL for ClojureScript and open a web browser:

`clj -Sdeps '{:deps {org.clojure/clojurescript {:mvn/version "1.10.758"}}}' --main cljs.main --repl`
