  • lsp-mode

    Emacs client/library for the Language Server Protocol

    • I'm using Emacs as my main development tool since more than a decade. In recent years, the improvements around language server tooling, especially lsp-mode [1], makes setting emacs up for different environments and languages a lot simpler. I regularly dabble around with Jetbrain tools mostly to compare if I'm missing out on something but I mostly don't find that to be the case.

  • emacs-libvterm

    Emacs libvterm integration

    • I switched from ansi-term to vterm (https://github.com/akermu/emacs-libvterm) and its performance is much better (specially when dealing with large bursts of output).

  • 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.

  • vlfi

    View Large Files in Emacs

    • You know how "there's an app for that" used to be a thing? Well, there's an elisp package for that: https://github.com/m00natic/vlfi
