This may be a bug in the documentation?

Lein version: Leiningen 2.5.2 on Java 1.8.0_102 Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM Clojure: 1.9.0-alpha14 Arachne Core: 0.1.0-master-0081-0ab2073 Project files: https://github.com/bheesham/ui

Seems to be some dependency that has a malformed ns form. When I clone you project I can run it just fine. Probably something in your ~/.lein/profiles.clj . Try to make an empty project using clojure 1.9.0-alpha12 or higher and see if it compiles.

[levand]

Yes, this type of error always indicates that somehow, something got required which hasn't been updated to be compatible with Clojure 1.9. It looks like something called spyscope, given that stack trace.

Since the project itself has no such dependencies, ~/.lein/profiles.clj is your likely culprit as @madstap says.

[bheesham]

Embarrassing.

Anyways, thanks for the help!
