cider-nrepl
officially targets Java 8, 11, 17, 21, and the most recent rapid
release version (e.g. Java 22). More generally speaking - we aim to support all
Java releases that are currently officially supported by Oracle.
cider-nrepl
targets Clojure 1.10+. As Clojure doesn’t have the concept of supported releases
we have to get a bit creative to determine the minimum version to target.
The minimum required Clojure version is currently derived using data from the State of Clojure survey. In general we consider a Clojure release eligible for dropping once its usage drops bellow 5%, but we’d not drop support for any release just for the sake of doing it. We’d do it only if this would lessen the maintenance burden or open up the possibility for big nREPL improvements.
Currently we apply the same policy for Clojure and ClojureScript support.
ClojureScript support is contingent on the Piggieback middleware.
Currently cider-nrepl requires Piggieback 0.4+ to work properly.

cider-nrepl
supports nREPL 0.6+.
We pay special attention to supporting whatever nREPL is bundled with the current stable Leiningen release. |

The matrix lists only the last versions of cider-nrepl that supports the
given compatibility tuple.

cider-nrepl | Required JDK | Required Clojure | Required nREPL |
---|---|---|---|
0.19 | 8 | 1.8 | 0.2.13 |
0.20 | 8 | 1.8 | 0.4.x |
0.25 | 8 | 1.8 | 0.6 |

cider-nrepl
is under active development and breaking changes might happen from
time to time. That being said, we’re well aware that these days many editors and
other Clojure development tools rely on cider-nrepl
and we’re fully committed
to avoid introducing painful breakages there.
Most tools authors using cider-nrepl
are involved with its development in
some capacity, so we’re always considering carefully any proposed breaking change
and the impact it would have.
It’s extremely unlikely that we’re going to break compatibility on the
protocol level ever (with the rare cases of changing/removing things
that existed, but we knew for a fact weren’t used). Most often
backwards compatibility would be broken on the implementation level -
usually extracting something out of cider-nrepl
to the orchard
library.
