Emacs Dashboard

An extensible emacs startup screen showing you what’s most important. The widget “projects”, which shows a list of recent projects, is not enabled by default since it depends on packages that might not be available. To activate the widget, set the variable dashboard-projects-backend to either =’projectile= (projectile, available from melpa) or =’project-el= (project.el, available from GNU elpa), then add an entry like (projects . 5) to the variable dashboard-items. The agenda is now sorted with dashboard-agenda-sort-strategy following the idea of org-agenda-sorting-strategy. Supported strategies are priority-up, priority-down, ~time-up, time-down, todo-state-up and todo-state-down.
