fuxialexander’s doom-emacs based Emacs config

I’ve been quite into Emasc since 2017. Previously I use a spacemacs-based config, later I found that I’m not the type of person who tend to keep a long-running Emacs session. I the kind of person who consistently fiddle in the Emacs rabbit hole. Thus I move my config to use doom-emacs which gives me faster startup time and a lean, mean environment for me to play with Emacs-lisp.

Good stuff

• An integrated literature management system based on org-ref: use org mode for PDF annotation, get literature from elfeed, etc.
• A usable notmuch email client
• org-gcal & calfw based calendar with beautiful theme
• Cool twittering.el UI mods (have been integrated to doom-emacs)
• Uses as many child-frame as I can
• A hand-crafted org-html export theme with searchable table, link to Skim.app annotation, table of contents, foldable code blocks and clean interface.
• ob-ipython and org based data science notebook with support of remote kernel.

Getting start

git clone https://github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs ~/.emacs.d
cd ~/.emacs.d && git checkout develop
git clone https://github.com/fuxialexander/doom-emacs-private-xfu ~/.doom.d

And use doom to install the packages, etc.

export PATH="~/.emacs.d/bin:$PATH" # You can add that to your ~/.*shrc
doom install

To-do list

Here are some stuff that I plan to work on in my spare time:

• [ ] An updated Elfeed UI
  • [ ] Automatically parse the feed to get paper DOI, and fetch the corresponding abstract if avaliable (currently some feeds only show title).
  • [ ] Ability to switch between different layout which have different information density
  • [ ] Make it beautiful and modern.
• [ ] An +dtach module which enhances different editing experience with multihops TRAMP connection
