I’m asking because I’m wondering if there’s a more efficient way for me to handle my notes at work. Currently I just use a txt file in Notepad++. I use this file to track all of the stuff I have to do, such as tasks for stories I’m working on, next steps for projects, discussions I need to follow up on, questions and ideas I want to bring up, etc. The way I organize the document works pretty well for me, but I’m just curious how other people do it.
Org-mode FTW! You only need to know emacs for it, which you can master in just a couple of measly decades.
Jokes aside, org-mode is unironically incredible. I use something called Getting Things Done (GTD). I do not regret spending some weeks truly learning about it.
Being a vim user for 30 years I’m often tempted to learn emacs purely for org mode. But then i remember emacs is evil and go back to todo.txt and vimwiki and I’m content.
Are you being sarcastic, or is there actually a tool with this name?
Its a good book to read. Highly recommend.
Also look up 43 folder by Merlin Mann.
The one by David Allen?
Yeah.
Much of it was obvious, a few new ideas. But it was good to just reinforce the whole process. It’s all about you building your own strategy so whatever works for you.
As a college student, org mode is one of the best tools I’ve ever come across.
Is there a version for neovim users?
You might also like https://github.com/nvim-neorg/neorg which is not meant to be compatible with Emacs org-mode, but rather something new that’s built around similar ideas but for Neovim. Hadn’t used it myself though, only heard about it.
Neorg is what I know of, and seems the most mature / recently updated.
It’s not as fully-featured as the Emacs one, but yes: https://github.com/nvim-orgmode/orgmode
