Description

Create a REPL (Read Eval Print Loop) for the Stellar language that helps in debugging, troubleshooting and learning Stellar. The Stellar DSL (domain specific language) is used to act upon streaming data within Apache Storm. It is difficult to troubleshoot Stellar when it can only be executed within a Storm topology. This REPL is intended to help mitigate that problem by allowing a user to replicate data encountered in production, isolate initialization errors, or understand function resolution problems.
