Introducing Niagara v0.0.5 - Pre-Alpha Release
Niagara takes a configuration file that specifies what the user wants to happen, and then deploys it! I will show an example configuration, and how to use it below. json { "packages": [ "feh", "doas", "picom" ], "config": [ { "option": "wallpaper", "val": "https://github.com/emacs-dashboard/emacs-dashboard/raw/master/banners/emacs.png" }, { "option": "dotfile", "val": [ "https://github.com/kavulox/nvim", "https://github.com/kavulox/picom" ] } ] }

Make Emacs start-up different when opening file
When I'm opening Emacs, I normally want it to display my dashboard. But if I'm opening a file, I just want it to jump straight to the file and not waste time showing the dashboard.

Add a numerical shortcut to emacs dashboard items.
This would be similar to what ace-link does, except that ace-link doesn't work with dashboard, and it uses Avy style keys for selection instead of numbers.

[Theme] Emacsdroid
I got bored by my previous theme and I wanted something new, so I went ahead and made my first theme. It’s based on my current Emacs configuration (you can find a screenshot at the beginning of the page) and especially on the aesthetics of the dashboard package, the Doom Nord theme as well as the Doom modeline.

I am thinking about getting back into writing and using org mode for it.
Doom emacs already comes with writeroom-mode for distraction-free writing with doom-specific improvements in the :ui zen module.

Writers, what are your favorite underrated packages?
I really enjoy using writeroom-mode for distraction-free writing in Emacs. I have it bound to a key in org-mode, even.
