Siddhartha Kasivajhula presents Symex Mode, an alternative modal interface for editing Lisp code in Emacs using tree navigation.
In this presentation from July 17 2019, Siddhartha Kasivajhula takes us through Symex Mode, which is a way to edit Lisp code in a Vim-like way, as an alternative to packages like paredit and lispy. Symex mode is based on a DSL that can express arbitrary tree navigations, the most common and useful of which are accessible via a modal interface implemented using the excellent Hydra package.
