Apropos treesitter, lsp and friends, I have based my baseline Emacs programming experience [1] on these. Quite enjoyable!

Apropos Clojure IDEs, m'colleagues and I in my neck of the Emacs-using Clojurist woods tend to send newcomers to VSCode or IntelliJ [2].

As community surveys show over the years, these two have come to own big chunks of the Clojure IDE pie. Well-earned, because both have received excellent Clojure programming support, with smooth REPL integration.

It seems Zed could become a contender too. A long time Clojure programmer friend and die-hard Emacs user recently remarked how Zed's performance might win him over.
