I first started using Emacs (and Linux for that matter) since around the end of 2023, and it's been well over a year of trial and error with this text editor. At first I was using this for all sorts of things such as:
|
|
|
|
- Dashboard
|
|
- Agenda
|
|
- Text editing
|
|
- Magit (version controlling)
|
|
- Syncthing Management
|
|
|
|
... and the list goes on.
|
|
|
|
One thing I realised is just how powerful Emacs really is, just recently I found out that you can use the ~emoji-insert~ to insert emojis! Some have even gone to say it's an operating system in its own right. So this prompted the question today, what do /I/ want from Emacs?
|
|
|
|
After some thinking I narrowed it down and collated it in the following diagram:

Of course this is the current workflow, where the text in red are items I /currently/ use Emacs for (high percentage likelihood this will increase), and the items in blue text are ones I plan on adding to my workflow. The main thing I want from this is to ensure consistency in daily practices.
|
|
|
|
- Org-roam bodies a huge aspect of the daily workflow, as it is a second brain where all information is stored.
|
|
- Learning elisp is primarily done in the scratch buffer and through projects.
|
|
- Java/Python IDE for when I'm leetcoding or doing any arbitrary project.
|
|
- Text editing mainly relates to config files for the arch setup.
|
|
- Org-agenda (more on this [[file:org-agenda-usage.org][here]]).
|
|
- Org-publish: see [[file:../../../setup.org][setup]].
