The world needs more videos like this. I love it! Keep going. Very often emacs videos are targeted at, for lack of a better phrase, power users and leave new users to fend for themselves. Videos like this and a few others on emacs basics are great to show how powerful emacs is when compared to those other editors.
You can add this to the bullet with habits :PROPERTIES: :CATEGORY: Habits :END: And the will be displayed in agenda as "Habits: Drink Water" for example
This is awesome, thanks for making this video. And to think that people think that Emacs is inferior to other IDEs, or that it's "just a primitive text editor". They have NO IDEA how powerful Emacs and org-mode are.
Great video! I'm especially interested in the calender view you show cased at around 8:20. Which exact package is this? I couldn't find the same in my doom emacs's package list
@@jaredarcilla571 Hi There! As others have said, would you PLEASE be willing to share your org config? This looks amazing. Thank you so much for sharing your workflow.
@@jquark17 Turns out I had already finished the hard parts of publicizing it! Here you go: github.com/jparcill/emacs_config Most of the things relevant to my workflow are in config.el
How do you center the contents of the buffer so there is a margin on both sides? Thanks for the video, I’m just starting with org mode so this gave me some ideas.
Here I'm using Olivetti: github.com/rnkn/olivetti However there's also writeroom mode which I also really like. This one does a lot more in changing org mode into a word processor-like application github.com/joostkremers/writeroom-mode
This is the default Doom Emacs theme github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs Doom Emacs is definitely worth checking out just for the speed boosts alone as well!
@@James-xt1ic Looking deeper into it, it seems that this is actually doom-city-lights instead of the default doom-one ! Forgot that I changed it to that
How did you "alias" or "map" the double quotes to a QUOTE block or those ">>" to mean "#+BEGIN_SRC" etc.? I don't even know what to call it... I see this for the first time.
Sure! That's making use of this html theme github.com/fniessen/org-html-themes. Without it, the org file would still be exported to an html file but the default is rather ugly.
Are you running emacs with `-nw` option the --no-window way? What operating system are you using? Are you using spacemacs? Cause I'm using emacs in my ubuntu terminal, and I tried a lot but can not show an inline image in that terminal, so I was confused.
Distro Tube made a video about why we shouldn't use emacs in the terminal. I'm stil new to it, but I'm pretty sure that you won't be able to display pictures unless you're using the gui version. ruclips.net/video/s0ed8Da3mjE/видео.html
Using the GUI. Not sure there's a way to display images in the terminal. At the time I was running Arch Linux however, since then I've just been using Windows but Emacs in WSL2 with Ubuntu.
@@jaredarcilla571 I'm curious how you got around the performance issues of WSL2 while running emacs (27). (I use spacemacs and am aware that doom is faster, but the pure difference between them can't be enormous, can it?) Did you do all your work from the subsystem home directory (I found that unperformant as well)? Also, I ran into unresolvable flickering issues with emacs 27 running on windows natively (without WSL). In case that prompted you to use emacs with WSL2, you might want to consider upgrading to emacs 28.1 (that resolved my issue). Thanks for introducing me to that calendar package, I had no idea emacs had that!
@@agastyam_ I haven't used spacemacs in a while but when I switched to doom in 2019 the difference truly felt like night and day. I missed my linux emacs setup and found that I wanted to go back to linux. So I switched out of using emacs on a virtual machine running linux.
Why does Emacs look so much more polished than NeoVim? I mean the test rendering and stuff like that. Can you do a video talking about your setup? Has anyone gotten neovim to look this clean and to render this way?

Hopeful to someday see your config for agenda, capture templates, calendar
Thank you for the video!
Hey I just made it public this month! Most of what you're looking for would just be in config.el github.com/jparcill/emacs_config
This is awesome, thanks for making this video. And to think that people think that Emacs is inferior to other IDEs, or that it's "just a primitive text editor". They have NO IDEA how powerful Emacs and org-mode are.
Emacs, paired with a good text editor is like the best OS ever
Great video! How do you get the heat map?
Beautiful and concise video, thanks a lot!
Nice video, very informative!
Great video! I'm especially interested in the calender view you show cased at around 8:20. Which exact package is this? I couldn't find the same in my doom emacs's package list
That would be calfw
github.com/kiwanami/emacs-calfw
It's a fantastic package
How do you manage to show *bold* as WYSIWYG
Lmk how this works!
(setq org-hide-emphasis-markers t)
@@jaredarcilla571 It's something I've been looking for and it's built-in! The manual doesn't refer this at all.. Thank you.
Nice video. Curious about a few things. Did you customize org-agenda? Where does that calendar view come from?
That's the emacs calfw! It can be found here: github.com/kiwanami/emacs-calfw

Looks very stylish, what theme are you using?
This is the default Doom Emacs theme github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs

@@jaredarcilla571 Is this actually the default Doom Emacs theme? Mine looks nothing like this :o
@@James-xt1ic Looking deeper into it, it seems that this is actually doom-city-lights instead of the default doom-one ! Forgot that I changed it to that
I've fallen in love with doom-rouge recently though and made the switch haha
@@jaredarcilla571 ooh thanks! This is a really cool video, I've been changing the way I do things and discovered some new features with it
What are you using in order to export to html ? My files are ugly af
I tried with ox-pandoc but still ugly
Org-html-themes. It's great!
github.com/fniessen/org-html-themes
what font is that? thx for the video!
It's Consola Mono. And thanks for watching
clean
How did you "alias" or "map" the double quotes to a QUOTE block or those ">>" to mean "#+BEGIN_SRC" etc.?
I don't even know what to call it... I see this for the first time.
It seems this was already included out of the box from doom emacs. I'm not sure which module specifically implements it sorry
Check prettify-symbol-mode
Can you shed some light on the #+SETUPFILE line?
Sure! That's making use of this html theme github.com/fniessen/org-html-themes.
Without it, the org file would still be exported to an html file but the default is rather ugly.
You can run ispell to spell check your file
Nice video, there are some things that are interesting. Do you use org-roam?
Yup! It's definitely coming in handy during school. I also use it to throw some personal org files in there as well like my "habits" org file

It's because Neovim runs in the terminal while Emacs is a GUI application.
did you put emacs config on github or anything?
My config still isn't in a state where I'm happy with making it public but I'm slowly working on it
@@jaredarcilla571 It looks like you have a nice setup for org mode. Could you share the org parts? Thanks for the great video!
@@arunrocks Just uploaded it now! github.com/jparcill/emacs_config
Hey! I uploaded my config just recently if you still wanted to take a look: github.com/jparcill/emacs_config
Are you still using org-mode could you do an update
This was very necessary
dude, you need to install all-the-icons fonts
Yup I have since then. It was actually I switched to arch 😉
