How I would like to use Calva, nREPL and figwheel-main together

Getting started with Calva

1. Start a Clojure REPL: make repl (a VS Code integrated terminal works great for this.)
2. Wait for the message `nREPL server started on port ...
3. Connect the REPL via the "Connect to a Running REPL Server in the Project" command in VS Code.
   • Choose "My local build" as the connection type
   • Press enter at the next prompt which is prefilled with `localhost:
4. Wait for the app to compile and open in your browser (opens on http://localhost:9010)
   • Close the alert displayed
5. Wait for the Calva output/repl window to display ; Connected session: cljs
6. Load src/main/repro/ui/core.cljs (open it and use the command Calva: Load file and dependencies)
7. Also load dev/tooling/portal.cljs, and confirm that portal opens in a web browser window.
8. Then evaluate the two forms in the rich comment block at the bottom of the file:

   (comment
     (open-portal)
     (tap> "Tap, tap! Who's there?"))
