dotemacs VS persp-mode.el

Here's my mu4e setup

7 - Meow: Meow is great. I switched from evil a few months ago and am pretty happy with it. I also dropped general.el for bind-key.el, which is included with use-package (which I see you are using anyway). You can look at my setup of meow here and a more generic setup of keybindings here. I haven't had any trouble with using this instead of general.

One thought is to limit which parts of the org-cite libraries to load. I had similar issues with speed. You can look at my current setup in my dotfiles here. I just use oc and oc-csl, along with citar (no org-ref) and everything works pretty well.

Another thing you might consider (this depends on how many tabs you usually keep open, etc.) is not displaying tabs in the tab-bar at all (setq tab-bar-show nil) and displaying them in the echo-area instead. I use a combination of https://github.com/fritzgrabo/tab-bar-echo-area and https://github.com/qaiviq/echo-bar.el to give a consistent but very unobtrusive presentation of the tabs in the echo bar on the bottom right. You can see that in this image -- and my config for it is here.

Yes. It’s not a problem (it’s also easy to write papers in markdown using markdown mode). If you want to see some of the packages involved look at my setup-writing.el file in my config.

If you just want folding then you can use emacs' built-in outline mode. And there are very easy ways to jump around a "modular" or multi-file config as well. I use both of these tools in my own config. I also like that I can easily load just small parts of my config via command line args, and of course that I don't need to worry about bootstrapping org-mode to get things running.

You can take a look atmy setup and see if any of it looks helpful. The relevant modules for you will be:

Yeah +1 for perspective.el. I use it with projectile to manage projects and have discrete buffers for different projects. You can look at my setup if it is helpful here.

I'm just switching to emacs (a noob). As far as I understood, doom uses " persp-mode.el " package instead of emacs built-in tab-mode. In order to reorder the tabs, tab-mode has tab-move and vim has tabmove. How can we do the same for doom?

I assume that it's the workspaces module in Doom Emacs which is powered by persp-mode.el.

But I'm rethinking about my approach, as tab-bar-mode would give me nice visual help (#3), and it seems difficult to recover a perspective using perspective, and persp-mode may be a better fit in that sense (#4). The Treemacs integration isn't working for me either, and I get the same list of file trees for all perspectives -- I'm pretty sure I'm doing something stupid, but this was handled nicely with Doom Emacs's workspace support (#5). But perspective seems to work best for segregated buffer list (#1).

I’ll also add that along with project.el/projectile persp-mode can be configured to work as you desire. persp-mode allows you to create different perspectives (or groups) of buffers. I usually have a few different perspectives and a project open in each of them.

You could try perspective or persp-mode

Doom achieves this via persp-mode.

The workspaces module in Doom uses persp-mode.

Built-in elisp -- are there libraries in emacs that could be extended? Here are two ideas: project.el is a great start but is lacking in some ways, especially as compared to an external library like projectile.el. Could you write up something to extend project.el's functionality by comparison? Similarly, tab-bar-mode is great, but one thing it is missing is a way to group buffers by tab, as something like persp-mode does. Could you write something that would extend this functionality to cover that case?
