Emacs Advent Calendar 9: devdocs, code-cells, dREPL, etc.
buffer-env: A pure-Elisp version of the direnv utility. Useful to make Emacs aware of Python virtualenvs (which, judging by the questions posted here, is unfortunately still a complication for a lot of people). Similar to (and inspired by) envrc, but doesn't require the direnv program.

Announcing "dir-local-env.el", set directory-local variables without a ".dir-locals.el" file (for example from within "init.el")
If you are interested in a “direnv but in Elisp”, you may want to check out this package: https://github.com/astoff/buffer-env.

hl-todo, magit-todo customizations?
Realize this isn't addressing the hl-todo question, I'm the author of hl-prog-extra which lets you define your own regex on comments/code/strings/doc-strings etc, I use it with sidecar-locals for per-project highlighting (highlighting bug ticket's spesific to the bug tracker for example). You might find it handy.

Announcing "dir-local-env.el", set directory-local variables without a ".dir-locals.el" file (for example from within "init.el")
I also wanted to avoid having to add files into my projects repositories, however I also didn't especially want to have to configure my projects in my init.el file either, so I wrote sidecar-locals which allows something similar to dir-locals that can be located above the projects in a sub-directory.

More convenient alternative to dir-locals?
I've written a small package that addresses the issues I had with dir-locals, I'm using it now and so far it's working well.
What are some alternatives?
