Make changes to your running program without having to restart it!
Is this like hot-reloading?
Yes, but (arguably) even better, because you choose which code to evaluate! With hot-reloading, your code gets re-evaluated for every change you make, whether you want to or not. -
Evaluate code and see the results inline - A feedback loop that is faster than ever!

Stops the server. |
Skerrick: Evaluate selected code |
Evaluates the selected region. Shows the eval result as an overlay. Result/stdout/stderr get written to the Output > Skerrick panel. |
