+# Eat and Eat powered Eshell, fast featureful terminal inside Emacs
+Akib Azmain Turja (he/him) - IRC: akib, <https://akib.codeberg.page> Fediverse: akib@hostux.social (I'm on some unethical proprietary social media, but there's hardly any chance that I'll respond within a reasonable amount of time.), <mailto:akib@disroot.org>

+
+Eat is a terminal emulator for Emacs, written in pure Emacs Lisp.  It
+can run most (if not all) terminal programs.  Despite being implemented
+in Emacs Lisp, it is fast enough for day-to-day uses.
+
+In this talk, I'll give an overview of Eat, its features and
+configuration.  I'll show the most useful features and the features that
+make Eat unique (e.g. shell integration, mouse tracking, Sixel support).
+(This may include features that hasn't been implemented yet but will be
+implemented and stable enough by the time of the recording of the talk.)
+Most of the features require no configuration to use, but are
+configurable with user options.  I'll also show the most useful
+customization options available that users may want to customize or
+tinker with.
+
+Thanks to the architecture of Eat, Eat can emulate terminal within any
+region of a buffer.  Therefore, Eat can be integrated with Eshell.  I'll
+show how to integrate Eat with Eshell, and the useful Eshell-specific
+features and configuration.
+
+Then, I'll compare Eat with other terminal emulators available for
+Emacs, and I'll show which feature that Eat has but the other doesn't,
+and which feature Eat lacks.  I'll show why Eat is good or bad for some
+users/use cases.  For example, why Shell mode users may prefer Coterm (a
+terminal emulator for Comint) over Eat, why Eat is better Term mode in
+the most cases, or why Vterm should be prefered for huge bursts of
+outputs, etc.
+
+Then I'll give pointers to the documentation available like the Info
+manual or README and what they contain.  And I'll also discuss what to
+do when you hit a problem.  I'll discuss about the common problems or
+misconfiguration, and also discuss where and how to report bugs
+properly.  I won't go into much details in this part, since the manual
+covers this topic completely, and the users are expected to not
+encounter problems.
+
+Then I'll discuss the future plans of the project.  And finally, I'll
+conclude the talk with a summary of the whole talk.
