  • emacs-vega-view

    A mode to facilitate interactive data visualization using Vega from within emacs

  • Check out https://github.com/applied-science/emacs-vega-view. Vega-Lite is a great visualization API and has bindings in many languages.

  • org-roam-ui

    A graphical frontend for exploring your org-roam Zettelkasten

  • Thank you, for mentioning these interesting projects. Also, I found org-roam-ui, I'm gonna study their code to try to understand how they did it.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • cl-ana

    Free (GPL) Common Lisp data analysis library with emphasis on modularity and conceptual clarity.

  • I understand what you mean; but despite CL appearing as a very similar to EL, the trouble would be probably significant due to missing libraries and semantic differences between CL and EL, in case of any significantly sophisticated plotting library, such as cl-ana for example. It is probably easier to port Emacs to CL, than that thing to Emacs :).

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
