- Trying to use emacs like a terminal multiplexer: Is there any way to restore window/tab layouts?

Reordering perspectives/tabs (where is :tabmove in vim)
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?

Launch emacsclient without create new workspace
I assume that it's the workspaces module in Doom Emacs which is powered by persp-mode.el.

Multi project management - perspective, persp-mode, tab-bar-mode, or...?
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).

Does Emacs provide the ability to separate your `.emacs.d` directory from your "working/project directory"?
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.

Any tips to manage different projects while retaining split layout?
Doom achieves this via persp-mode.

Ideas for writing a first extension useful to others.
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?
