delve VS svg-lib

Don't think I've seen a package that you're referring to, but maybe delve could be a substitute?

I think maybe folks are misunderstanding what you mean by 5. I recall that notion automatically generates tables for you based on some content. If that's what you're looking for https://github.com/publicimageltd/delve might be the package for you.

When I see dashboards based on content I think delve.

If you're using org-roam already, might be worth looking into delve.

Not sure what you mean on the first one. The second one's easiest solution is probably org-transclusion as what you're asking is to translude notes. But other packages with a similar concept of collecting your notes and adding them in a separate buffer are things such as delve or (shameless self plug) zetteldesk. I got no clue how to do the third one. I agree with you on that todos should work in more places, but I also don't know how to fix it. For the one with the calendar, I am pretty sure calfw has an extension that does that. I think calfw-org?

Sounds useful! So I understand you let the user add notes to a special org mode buffer which you then call a ' desktop', right? I have written a similar package for collecting org roam nodes called Delve. It uses a special list view to collect the stuff, however. Your approach is more direct, right? I have considered that approach, too, but I thought it would be nice to have something to navigate from link to its back links to their back links etc... apart from that, I'd actually prefer your kind of approach since it seems more emacsy.

I think you might be looking for delve. It allows to create collections of notes and operate on them.

You can hide/show icons, labels, create context menus with lisp callbacks for each menu item. The library uses svg-lib so you can use icons from various online collections supported by it. Under the hood it has tiny daemon, written in C that interacts with system tray via libappindicator. So, at least for now, the only supported OS is Linux.

Yes, he also uses svg to render a canvas and images. You can also check work by Rougier (/u/nicolas-rougier), he usually anounces his stuff in /r/emacs. He has done a lot with svg, check his svg-lib and svg-icons.

Isn't a "pile" just an "unorganized map"? Really, if you think of it: a pile of papers on a desk, could as well sitt in a folder. That should bring you back to normal desktop paradigm. Now implementing headings as "folders" shouldn't be overly difficult. You could implement a "pile" of headings as just subheadings to top headings and also render those top headings as either: svg icons, check for example svg-library by /u/Nicolas-Rougier, or you could use font-icons like in font-awesome or all-the-icons, to replace top-headings with an image or a font-icon. You would probably have to write your own minor-mode but it shouldn't be very difficult. You will probably need to use invisible-text property to hide headings and replace them with icons (that is normally how org and outline modes "fold" and "expand" content in headings), but that should not be very difficult.

the most basic UI changes you can do is by configuring faces (i recommend you take a look at the whole Controlling the Display section of the manual). going a bit beyond that, you can also take a look at the Widget Library as well for buttons, links, checkboxes and some other stuff. and there is also some packages and hacks by the community to display SVGs. see this reddit post and also some of Nicolas Rougier's work, more specifically his SVG lib.

You could, at least in theory, do lots of GUI stuff in Emacs itself already with SVG (org PNGs). See for example svg-lib by N. Rougier for doing stuff like buttons, toolbars and some other gui elements. You can do pop-up menus with child frames.

At the moment undetermined progress is what's supported out-of-the-box. Determined progress can be supported easily enough if svg-lib is used to create the progress bar.

Oh, I understood now what you mean. I think Emacs is definitely capable of doing this (https://github.com/rougier/svg-lib), but I don't think there's a plugin which has already done it :/.

i saw this repository and i want to use thoses icons in my org files, but i don't have much experience with emacs-lisp and neither org-mode (sorry for being a newbie). i tried to append (require 'svg-lib) and also i donwloaded the repository and before did it before requiring the module (i'm not sure if this is the right name)

Have you considered/tried doing something with svg-lib?

Can you open an issue on https://github.com/rougier/svg-lib (with screenshots)? I'm trying to fix the tag for any kind of font ant that would help.
