    Spacemacs

    Spacemacs

    A community-driven Emacs distribution

    The best editor is neither Emacs nor Vim, it's Emacs *and* Vim, courtesy of Spacemacs! Spacemacs is an extension of the popular text editor Emacs, that offers a whole new way of experiencing Emacs. It is a community-driven Emacs distribution that focuses on ergonomics, mnemonics and consistency. Using it comes naturally to both Emacs and Vim users. In fact, you could even combine the two editing styles. Enabling you to switch between input styles makes Spacemacs a great choice for pair-programming. Spacemacs features a beautiful GUI and exceptional ergonomics, with all the key bindings easily accessible simply by pressing the space bar or alt-m. Spacemacs also comes with hundreds of curated, ready-to-use packages that are well organised in configuration layers.

    Lux

    Lux

    The Lux Programming Language

    Lux is a new programming language in the making. It's meant to be a functional, statically-typed Lisp that will run on several platforms, such as the Java Virtual Machine and JavaScript, Python, Lua, or Ruby interpreters. Lux is in the beta stage. The JVM compiler is pretty stable and the standard library has grown to a respectable size. Also, new experimental support for JavaScript, Python, Lua, and Ruby has been added. Read carefully before using this project, as the license disallows commercial use, and has other conditions which may be undesirable for some. The language is mostly inspired by the following 3 languages. Clojure (syntax, overall look & feel), Haskell (functional programming), and Standard ML (module system). They are implemented as plain-old data-structures whose expressions get eval'ed by the compiler and integrated into the type-checker. The main difference between Lux & Standard ML is that Standard ML separates interfaces/signatures and implementations/structures.

    Magit

    Magit

    A Git porcelain inside Emacs

    Magit is a complete text-based user interface to Git. It fills the glaring gap between the Git command-line interface and various GUIs, letting you perform trivial as well as elaborate version control tasks with just a couple of mnemonic key presses. Magit looks like a prettified version of what you get after running a few Git commands but in Magit every bit of visible information is also actionable to an extent that goes far beyond what any Git GUI provides and it takes care of automatically refreshing this output when it becomes outdated. In the background Magit just runs Git commands and if you wish you can see what exactly is being run, making it possible for you to learn the git command-line by using Magit. Using Magit for a while will make you a more effective version control user. Magit supports and streamlines the use of Git features that most users and developers of other Git clients apparently thought could not be reasonably mapped to a non-command-line interface.

    SLIME

    SLIME

    The Superior Lisp Interaction Mode for Emacs

    SLIME is a Emacs mode for Common Lisp development. Inspired by existing systems such Emacs Lisp and ILISP, we are working to create an environment for hacking Common Lisp in. SLIME extends Emacs with support for interactive programming in Common Lisp. The features are centered around slime mode, an Emacs minor mode that complements the standard lisp mode. While lisp-mode supports editing Lisp source files, slime-mode adds support for interacting with a running Common Lisp process for compilation, debugging, documentation lookup, and so on. The Read-Eval-Print Loop ("top-level") is written in Emacs Lisp for tighter integration with Emacs. The REPL also has builtin "shortcut" commands similar to those of the McCLIM listener. SLIME is able to take compiler messages and annotate them directly into source buffers.

    lispy

    lispy

    Short and sweet LISP editing

    This package reimagines Paredit - a popular method to navigate and edit LISP code in Emacs. Most of more than 100 interactive commands that lispy provides are bound to a-z and A-Z in lispy-mode. The advantage of short bindings is that you are more likely to use them. As you use them more, you learn how to combine them, increasing your editing efficiency. To further facilitate building complex commands from smaller commands, lispy-mode binds digit-argument to 0-9. For example, you can mark the third element of the list with 3m. You can then mark third through fifth element (three total) with 2> or >>. You can then move the selection to the last three elements of the list with 99j. If you are currently using Paredit, note that lispy-mode and paredit-mode can actually coexist with very few conflicts, although there would be some redundancy.

    CIDER

    CIDER

    The Clojure Interactive Development Environment that Rocks for Emacs

    CIDER extends Emacs with support for interactive programming in Clojure. The features are centered around cider-mode, an Emacs minor-mode that complements clojure-mode. While clojure-mode supports editing Clojure source files, cider-mode adds support for interacting with a running Clojure process for compilation, debugging, definition and documentation lookup, running tests, and so on. CIDER aims to provide an interactive development experience similar to the one you’d get when programming in Emacs Lisp, Common Lisp (with SLIME or Sly), Scheme (with Geiser), and Smalltalk. Programmers are expected to program in a very dynamic and incremental manner, constantly re-evaluating existing Clojure definitions and adding new ones to their running applications. You never stop/start a Clojure application while using CIDER - you’re constantly interacting with it and changing it.

    Casual Suite

    Casual Suite

    An umbrella package to support a single install point

    An umbrella package to support a single installation point for all Casual user interfaces for Emacs. These user interfaces built with Transient are included via the Elisp library header Package-Requires. It is highly recommended that a deep reading of the install procedure for each user interface be done beforehand as each of them has their own recommended customizations to go alongside them. Casual Suite requires Casual Lib which in turn requires a recent installation of Transient 0.6.0+ from either ELPA or MELPA. As an older version of Transient is built-in to the Emacs release, the package manager package.el will not update this package unless the customizable variable package-install-upgrade-built-in is set to t. Set this variable and proceed with installing Casual Suite. Alternately invoking package-install with a prefix (C-u) will temporarily coerce the update of the built-in package.
