Emacs-Appindicator - create and control tray icons with Elisp!
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.

Initial Thoughts On A New Productivity Tool
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.

Package to display org headings spatially?
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.

Rounded UI corners and shadows?
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.

Cross-platform graphics
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.

procress: A simple emacs package to indicate progress of a process in the modeline (for example AUCTeX processes)
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.

Why not use Obsidian and/or Logseq instead of OrgRoam?
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 :/.

svg-lib icons in org files
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)

svg-tag-mode (v 0.3.1) is now on ELPA
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.

How can I temporarily bypass helm and put free text
Oh wow wow wow! I just checked your commit on the repository. That's so amazing. I really appreciate that. And I also found a convenient donation link.

Best emacs configs for Javascript and/or users who don't like to memorize keybindings?
Next you "only" have to remember (elisp) function names. "Completion UIs" like ivy/counsel, icomplete, helm or vertico/consult, give you a nice auto completion list on M-x (choose the one of them, you like the most). Some of those Completion UIs will display existing keybindings and a short documentation for commands, near the auto complete candidates. So you will start to remember more keybindings without "learning sessions", just because invoking functions via keybindings is much faster (more convenient).

org-SUPER-sparse-tree?
I use imenu, and helm-imenu to filter out the list interactively. Instead of scrolling through, you "jump" to an item via completion like helm-imenu, which filters all headings interactively in real-time as you type.

Is There A Buffer Package Like Vertico Pos-Frame That Makes A Rectangle Frame In The Middle For Dired Mode?
I personally use Helm, so I can manage all files (open, delete, copy, rename, etc) all from completing prompt directly, I don't need to open Dired for that.

(require 'ffap) after bug fix #2574 in helm-lib.el?
I updated helm recently and when trying to use it after startup I was hitting "Defining as dynamic an already lexical var" . debugger showed me it was due to `ffap-machine-p-local` not being defined yet, digging into helm-lib.el i found that it is due to the ffap let bindings added recently to `helm-guess-filename-at-point` - the first one was to address this issue https://github.com/emacs-helm/helm/issues/2574 and more recently two more ffaps were let bound. I can fix by adding `(require 'ffap)` in the helm `use-package` `:config` -- wondering if this is the recommended way or if it might be something worth living inside helm-lib.el near the top where it requires cl-lib already?
