burly.el VS taxy.el

burly.el by u/alphapapa - might be an easier way to approach the current-window-configuration/set-window-configuration that Sacha has implemented

For the "lauch workspaces", I use burly which just uses simple bookmarks. Then with consult, I just use C-x b, then m to narrow to bookmarks and I have all the workspaces available (remote as well).

Well, that is essentially what Burly does: https://github.com/alphapapa/burly.el

Install https://github.com/alphapapa/burly.el

These features are especially useful with Burly: https://github.com/alphapapa/burly.el Because Burly can save and restore those kinds of windows, so you need not recreate them manually.

How does it compare to packages like burly, which (to my understanding) provide similar features?

I'm not sure exactly what you're looking for, but take a look at this: https://github.com/alphapapa/burly.el

I think you want "window configurations", which can be saved into registers. You might try tab-bar-mode for cycling through them. Or there's also https://github.com/alphapapa/burly.el/ . (I'd like something similar but haven't found something that matches what I want)

desktop is not a great solution for restoring buffers, because it generally only works for file-backed buffers. Instead, I wrote Burly to restore buffers, windows, and frames in mode-specific ways, on-demand using Emacs bookmarks. This is much more flexible and powerful than similar functionality in desktop.

Redesigned the *hyperdrive-mirror* buffer to use taxy-magit-section

taxy is not a layer on top of magit-section, but it offers a library to use magit-section to render taxy-based structures. See https://github.com/alphapapa/taxy.el

It's not designed to work that way, but it's theoretically possible. Especially, when I refactor parts of Bufler to use Taxy, it will be easy to make certain grouping keys non-consuming. See https://github.com/alphapapa/bufler.el/issues/69

For org-agenda, you can use org-super-agenda for grouping. If you write code, taxy.el would help with grouping in general. You can use org-ql for querying Org entries matching a certain criteria.

Here's a library for writing such classification systems in Emacs Lisp: https://github.com/alphapapa/taxy.el

Taxy: Uses magit-section but in some cases makes it even more convenient and fast to put data into a buffer

The imenu one is very cool too. BTW, you might be interested in Deffy if you haven't seen it already (you probably have, considering how many times I've pasted the link here and there).

Refer to some examples, e.g. https://github.com/alphapapa/taxy.el/blob/package/taxy-magit-section/taxy-magit-section.el

Also, here's a WIP taxy-ewoc library that I started: https://github.com/alphapapa/taxy.el/blob/wip/ewoc/taxy-ewoc.el It basically works, but it's using nested EWOCs, which is something I haven't tried before, and I'm not sure if I'm doing it quite right, so there are a few rough edges.
