GNU ELPA -00:47.896 --> 00:50.155 +00:42.466 --> 00:44.725 and org-contrib from NonGNU ELPA. -00:50.155 --> 00:52.278 +00:44.725 --> 00:46.848 The new release of the Org Roam package -00:52.278 --> 00:54.185 +00:46.848 --> 00:48.755 should be a faster and more consistent way -00:54.185 --> 00:56.060 +00:48.755 --> 00:50.630 to use Org to manage a knowledgebase, -00:56.060 --> 00:58.423 +00:50.630 --> 00:52.993 and org-roam-ui looks pretty snazzy. -00:58.423 --> 01:00.531 +00:52.993 --> 00:55.101 The best way to keep up with Org changes -01:00.531 --> 01:02.556 +00:55.101 --> 00:57.126 is to check out the blog This Month in Org. -01:02.556 --> 01:03.439 +00:57.126 --> 00:58.009 3. -01:03.439 --> 01:05.469 +00:58.009 --> 01:00.039 New Magit major release! -01:05.469 --> 01:07.781 +01:00.039 --> 01:02.351 Jonas Bernoulli has split some functionality -01:07.781 --> 01:09.557 +01:02.351 --> 01:04.127 into other packages so that -01:09.557 --> 01:11.719 +01:04.127 --> 01:06.289 Emacs Lisp developers can use them, such as -01:11.719 --> 01:14.049 +01:06.289 --> 01:08.619 magit-section, transient, and forge. -01:14.049 --> 01:16.502 +01:08.619 --> 01:11.072 Here's an example of using magit-section -01:16.502 --> 01:17.773 +01:11.072 --> 01:12.343 to manage groups of buffers. -01:17.773 --> 01:19.333 +01:12.343 --> 01:13.903 You can learn more about Transient -01:19.333 --> 01:20.842 +01:13.903 --> 01:15.412 in the talk on self-describing -01:20.842 --> 01:23.538 +01:15.412 --> 01:18.108 smart domain-specific languages or DSLs. -01:23.538 --> 01:24.320 +01:18.108 --> 01:18.890 4. -01:24.320 --> 01:26.545 +01:18.890 --> 01:21.115 In terms of smaller packages, there's been -01:26.545 --> 01:28.625 +01:21.115 --> 01:23.195 a lot of activity around completion. -01:28.625 --> 01:30.292 +01:23.195 --> 01:24.862 Karthik has a great diagram, -01:30.292 --> 01:32.459 +01:24.862 --> 01:27.029 and Prot explains how things work together. -01:32.459 --> 01:34.414 +01:27.029 --> 01:28.984 I think the idea is that instead of having -01:34.414 --> 01:36.066 +01:28.984 --> 01:30.636 one large completion system -01:36.066 --> 01:38.344 +01:30.636 --> 01:32.914 like Helm or Icicles, you can choose -01:38.344 --> 01:40.110 +01:32.914 --> 01:34.680 a few different, smaller packages -01:40.110 --> 01:41.869 +01:34.680 --> 01:36.439 and configure them to work together. -01:41.869 --> 01:43.129 +01:36.439 --> 01:37.699 If you're curious about this, -01:43.129 --> 01:45.159 +01:37.699 --> 01:39.729 you might start with either selectrum -01:45.159 --> 01:47.871 +01:39.729 --> 01:42.441 or vertico, which are both completion interfaces, -01:47.871 --> 01:50.443 +01:42.441 --> 01:45.013 add marginalia for more information, -01:50.443 --> 01:52.222 +01:45.013 --> 01:46.792 and try consult for many useful -01:52.222 --> 01:53.233 +01:46.792 --> 01:47.803 completing commands. -01:53.233 --> 01:54.279 +01:47.803 --> 01:48.849 There are so many options, -01:54.279 --> 01:55.867 +01:48.849 --> 01:50.437 so it might be useful to check out -01:55.867 --> 01:56.714 +01:50.437 --> 01:51.284 some discussions. -01:56.714 --> 01:57.477 +01:51.284 --> 01:52.047 5. -01:57.477 --> 01:59.531 +01:52.047 --> 01:54.101 Embark is usually mentioned as part of -01:59.531 --> 02:00.607 +01:54.101 --> 01:55.177 that group of packages, -02:00.607 --> 02:02.196 +01:55.177 --> 01:56.766 but it's well worth looking into -02:02.196 --> 02:03.895 +01:56.766 --> 01:58.465 even if you use a different system. -02:03.895 --> 02:06.417 +01:58.465 --> 02:00.987 Embark lets you have context-sensitive shortcuts -02:06.417 --> 02:08.796 +02:00.987 --> 02:03.366 that work on things in buffers, minibuffers, -02:08.796 --> 02:10.768 +02:03.366 --> 02:05.338 and even collections of things. -02:10.768 --> 02:11.737 +02:05.338 --> 02:06.307 You can also use it -02:11.737 --> 02:12.912 +02:06.307 --> 02:07.482 when you start doing one command -02:12.912 --> 02:15.012 +02:07.482 --> 02:09.582 and then decide to do a different one instead. -02:15.012 --> 02:16.271 +02:09.582 --> 02:10.841 For more ideas, check out -02:16.271 --> 02:17.495 +02:10.841 --> 02:12.065 Fifteen Ways to Use Embark. -02:17.495 --> 02:18.285 +02:12.065 --> 02:12.855 6. -02:18.285 --> 02:20.163 +02:12.855 --> 02:14.733 Now that there are Emacs Lisp bindings -02:20.163 --> 02:22.139 +02:14.733 --> 02:16.709 for tree-sitter, we can work more easily -02:22.139 --> 02:23.799 +02:16.709 --> 02:18.369 with the structure of code instead of -02:23.799 --> 02:25.461 +02:18.369 --> 02:20.031 just using regular expressions. -02:25.461 --> 02:26.209 +02:20.031 --> 02:20.779 Check out the talk -02:26.209 --> 02:27.804 +02:20.779 --> 02:22.374 on Tree-edit and structural editing -02:27.804 --> 02:28.593 +02:22.374 --> 02:23.163 to learn more. -02:28.593 --> 02:30.056 +02:23.163 --> 02:24.626 You can use tree-sitter for -02:30.056 --> 02:31.951 +02:24.626 --> 02:26.521 intelligent snippets that get information -02:31.951 --> 02:33.169 +02:26.521 --> 02:27.739 from the code around them, -02:33.169 --> 02:35.064 +02:27.739 --> 02:29.634 editing Lisp expressions, -02:35.064 --> 02:37.401 +02:29.634 --> 02:31.971 and navigating text objects in Evil mode. -02:37.401 --> 02:39.670 +02:31.971 --> 02:34.240 (That's when Emacs is pretending to be Vi.) -02:39.670 --> 02:42.563 +02:34.240 --> 02:37.133 Dynamic modules help us add more to Emacs -02:42.563 --> 02:44.388 +02:37.133 --> 02:38.958 than Emacs Lisp easily offers, -02:44.388 --> 02:46.804 +02:38.958 --> 02:41.374 such as structural editing in OCaml -02:46.804 --> 02:48.729 +02:41.374 --> 02:43.299 and using Rust to figure out parentheses -02:48.729 --> 02:50.086 +02:43.299 --> 02:44.656 and indentation for Lisp. -02:50.086 --> 02:50.999 +02:44.656 --> 02:45.569 If you're curious, -02:50.999 --> 02:51.923 +02:45.569 --> 02:46.493 check out the talk on -02:51.923 --> 02:54.336 +02:46.493 --> 02:48.906 Extending Emacs in Rust with Dynamic Modules. -02:54.336 --> 02:55.239 +02:48.906 --> 02:49.809 7. -02:55.239 --> 02:57.294 +02:49.809 --> 02:51.864 Collaborative editing is now much easier -02:57.294 --> 02:59.890 +02:51.864 --> 02:54.460 since the CRDT package is in GNU ELPA. -02:59.890 --> 03:01.632 +02:54.460 --> 02:56.202 It allows multiple people to edit -03:01.632 --> 03:03.285 +02:56.202 --> 02:57.855 the same file over the network, -03:03.285 --> 03:05.025 +02:57.855 --> 02:59.595 using their own Emacs. -03:05.025 --> 03:06.850 +02:59.595 --> 03:01.420 This means you can keep your own config -03:06.850 --> 03:08.674 +03:01.420 --> 03:03.244 and keybindings, yay! -03:08.674 --> 03:10.400 +03:03.244 --> 03:04.970 Watch the Emacs Research Group talk -03:10.400 --> 03:12.185 +03:04.970 --> 03:06.755 for an example of how several people -03:12.185 --> 03:13.337 +03:06.755 --> 03:07.907 used it to work together. -03:13.337 --> 03:13.838 +03:07.907 --> 03:08.408 8. -03:13.838 --> 03:15.401 +03:08.408 --> 03:09.971 In case you're still under the impression -03:15.401 --> 03:17.049 +03:09.971 --> 03:11.619 that Emacs is just a text editor, -03:17.049 --> 03:18.560 +03:11.619 --> 03:13.130 some folks have been working on -03:18.560 --> 03:20.254 +03:13.130 --> 03:14.824 pretty neat graphical experiments. -03:20.254 --> 03:22.432 +03:14.824 --> 03:17.002 These OpenGL bindings for Emacs Lisp -03:22.432 --> 03:24.195 +03:17.002 --> 03:18.765 use an embedded xwidget, -03:24.195 --> 03:26.607 +03:18.765 --> 03:21.177 while other prototypes use the SVG support -03:26.607 --> 03:27.700 +03:21.177 --> 03:22.270 that's built into Emacs -03:27.700 --> 03:29.047 +03:22.270 --> 03:23.617 for Gantt charts, -03:29.047 --> 03:29.819 +03:23.617 --> 03:24.389 scribbles, -03:29.819 --> 03:31.320 +03:24.389 --> 03:25.890 and even diagrams. -03:31.320 --> 03:32.790 +03:25.890 --> 03:27.360 The color-picker from that one -03:32.790 --> 03:34.841 +03:27.360 --> 03:29.411 looks particularly useful for CSS. -03:34.841 --> 03:37.043 +03:29.411 --> 03:31.613 If you want to play around with adding SVGs -03:37.043 --> 03:38.722 +03:31.613 --> 03:33.292 to your files and interfaces, -03:38.722 --> 03:39.762 +03:33.292 --> 03:34.332 svg-icon -03:39.762 --> 03:40.679 +03:34.332 --> 03:35.249 and svg-lib -03:40.679 --> 03:42.733 +03:35.249
