Gabriel Arazas a0b94026e2 Add notes on Emacs and creativity
Not much connection between the two (yet) but just something I keep in
mind for the previous days. For the creativity, I focused first on what
creativity is and how I think of it. If ever I have a random realization
then I'll be sure to continue this note or something.

Org mode

At its core, Org mode is a Personal information management tool that deals with your tasks and schedules. It also sports a lightweight markup language and a framework called org-babel (see Org mode: Babel) that allows arbitrarily inserting output of code of various programming languages. With these features, Org-mode is known as one of the many tools for Reproducible research which also serves as a solid tool for Note-taking as well.

Unfortunately, a lot of the famous powers of the format is tied with GNU Emacs. While there is an ecosystem flourishing outside of the text editor (e.g., go-org, orgajs, Org mode support in Pandoc), the plugins inside of Emacs simply cannot be ignored. Among other Org mode plugins inside of the Emacs ecosystem, we have org-roam, org-ref, org-noter, a number of exporters, and org-babel language plugins that extends to more workflows.
