Today in Slack there was a question from a Clojure beginner about how to jack-in using Calva. Calva warns about the :nextjournal/clerk alias potentially tripping the REPL connection up. (Which, after having looked at the deps.edn, I think is a valid concern.) Another user in that Slack thread said things worked if he jacked-in without selecting any aliases.

I think some little more guidance about this in the README would take us far. I can help with it from a Calva perspective, but I need to understand the project setup a bit. Any CIDER user in the Clerk team who can describe how they jack-in to the project? That would probably tell me how to advice people to do it from Calva.

In it's simplest form the the README maybe only needs to mention that no aliases should be selected when jacking in from an editor. So it doesn't have to be a Calva specific text. Even if we might want that anyway, since beginners often use Calva and could benefit from clear Calva-specific steps. WDYT?

Cheers!
