> deps.edn

Deps is well documented.

The issue I personally found is that I needed to look at a bunch of OS project's deps.edn to see how people commonly structure things. Other than that it is a simple tool.

> socket repl over nrepl

I personally use Calva (VSCode) which just starts an nrepl based on deps.edn. When writing babashka scripts I start the repl manually and connect to it. Very pleasant experience so far.

> Spec seems kind of weird and not well thought out either.

I didn't like it at first, but once I got that everything is bottom up I had an AHA moment. Function specs and instrumentation are very powerful. Conform is basically a parser, which can give you a lot of leverage.

What bothers me about spec is that it is still not released though.
