Tools and practiceVim, Emacs and editorsLisp and Clojure

Alain M. Lafon demonstrates the extensive capabilities of Emacs and how to treat the editor like a musical instrument through practice.

My (literate) Emacs config is here: github.com/munen/emacs.d/ Lean back and relax while enjoying a deep dive into the wonderful world of the Emacs editor. Emacs renaissance came with the advent of Clojure and undoubtedly is the most popular editor among Clojurians today. Of course there is a lot more you can do with Emacs, but much like playing an instrument, great skill only comes with practice. You neither need to be an Emacs user nor a Clojure programmer and neither do you need to contemplate about becoming one either to enjoy this talk. Much like you don't become a professional musician by attending a concert, but it might very well be inspiring. This talk was recorded at the Clojure Meetup in Zurich, Switzerland (organised by 200ok.ch). Please find the slides here: 200ok.ch/posts/2018-04-27_Play_Emacs_like_an_Instrument.html If you enjoy this channel, please consider becoming a GitHub Sponsor: github.com/sponsors/200ok-ch/
