As a programmer, you can work comfortably, +completely inside an org-mode buffer. When you are ready, emacs will +generate the appropriate documentation and source code files for you. +If you are a lone emacs user on your project, simply commit these +exported files and keep your org file to yourself – no one is the +wiser. + +Watch "Literate Programming in Emacs Org-mode" to learn how you can +annotate code snippets in an org file so they can be automatically +exported to their proper locations in your source tree. Keep +important information about your project where it should be: right +next to the code itself. Not as ugly, out-of-date notes sitting +behind comment characters in your source files, but front and center +in well-formatted markdown and pdf files. + +And, for advanced use cases, see how you can even use a full-fledged +macro processor like m4 to personalize your workflow even more. +Literate programming on steroids! + +I'll walk you through the whole process, starting from an empty +project README.org to a simple example that generates source and +documentation. + + + + +Back to the [[schedule]] + +All times are approximate, and we might shuffle talks around as needed. Please check https://emacsconf.org/2020 a few days before the start of the conference for instructions on how to watch and participate. +<!-- automatically generated from submissions.org ---> +[[!meta title="Literate Programming in Emacs Org-Mode"]] |
