nREPL is a really interesting protocol for developer tools. It's extensible, but one of the basic operations is eval(). If your nREPL server doesn't support a given operation, you can just send an eval request to achieve the same result!

I've added an eval button to the website of my programming language! It's a been a lot of work to lock down appropriately. It still needs some UI polish but it's so nice to be able to try snippets immediately.

Playing with Claude and my new programming language has made me add features that it wants. I think they're reasonable. `for method in methods` -- custom syntax error explaining that `method` is a reserved word `echo 'println("hello world")' | garden` -- eval snippets from stdin
