Show HN: ChromeREPL, Interact with Chrome from Sublime Text

  • I wrote a somewhat similar tool for use with Emacs many years ago, SwankJS: https://github.com/swank-js/swank-js See this demo, for example: http://emacsrocks.com/e11.html It was not dependent on Chrome features and even did work with IE6 at some point. Too bad REPL-based programming is not very useful for modern JavaScript. There's a successor, though: https://github.com/skeeto/skewer-mode

  • Is there a similar extension for vscode or onivim?

  • While this looks awesome, it runs really slow for me. From sending a command in Sublime to the actual execution, it takes me > 1s. This is on Windows 10, Sublime Text 3, Chrome 66.

    EDIT: if I install chromeREPL, it takes ages to open the command palette (CTL+Shift+P). If I uninstall it, the problem disappears.

  • This looks very useful, but it does concern me that this is even possible. Simply starting chrome with a `--remote-debug` flag allows you to run JavaScript in any tab? seems like it could easily be exploited somehow; read passwords, copy userinfo etc.

  • I'm looking for something like this but works with vim. Editing chrome snippets [1] in the dev tools is not fun.

  • This looks pretty slick, looking forward to giving it a shot. It’s nice to see Sublime get a bit of love too in the age of Atom and VS Code. The Snippets tab under the Sources section of the Dev Tools has worked well for me in the past too.

  • ClojureScript has this for ages (see Figwheel + Emacs + CIDER)

  • Is there something similar for Firefox?
