Mozc
Mozc - a Japanese Input Method Editor designed for multi-platform
Mozc is an open source Japanese Input Method Editor (IME) developed by Google, designed to provide Japanese text input across multiple operating systems including Android, macOS, Windows, GNU/Linux, and Chromium OS. The project originated as a subset of Google Japanese Input, released publicly under the BSD 3-Clause license for community use and development. Mozc offers core IME functionality such as text conversion, prediction, and dictionary-based input, enabling users to efficiently type and edit Japanese text. While Mozc shares much of its codebase with Google’s internal IME, it operates as an independent open source project without official support, guarantees, or stable release cycles. Developers can build Mozc from source for their preferred platform, and the repository includes detailed build instructions for Android, Linux, macOS, and Windows environments. -

telega.el
GNU Emacs telegram client (unofficial)
telega is a full-featured unofficial client for Telegram platform for GNU Emacs. telega is actively developed, for this reason, some features are not implemented, or they are present just as skeletons for future implementation. However, the core parts are mature enough so that it is possible to use telega on daily basis. telega depends on the visual-fill-column and rainbow-identifiers packages. This dependency automatically installs if you install telega from MELPA or GNU Guix. Otherwise, will you need to install these packages by hand? telega is built on top of the official library provided by Telegram TDLib. Most distributions do not provide this package in their repositories, in which case you will have to install it manually by following the instructions. GNU Guix, however, does have both telega and TDLib packaged. If you use GNU Guix you can skip directly to Installing from GNU Guix. -

Emacs-Helm
Emacs incremental completion and selection narrowing framework
Emacs incremental completion and selection narrowing framework. Helm is an Emacs framework for incremental completions and narrowing selections. It helps to rapidly complete file names, buffer names, or any other Emacs interactions requiring selecting an item from a list of possible choices. Helm is a fork of anything.el, which was originally written by Tamas Patrovic and can be considered to be its successor. Helm cleans the legacy code that is leaner, modular, and unchained from constraints of backward compatibility. Helm is an Emacs framework for incremental completions and narrowing selections.

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. -

Clojure Mode
Emacs support for the Clojure(Script) programming language
clojure-mode is an Emacs major mode that provides font-lock (syntax highlighting), indentation, navigation and refactoring support for the Clojure(Script) programming language. MELPA Stable is the recommended repo as it has the latest stable version. MELPA has a development snapshot for users who don't mind (infrequent) breakage but don't want to run from a git checkout. Available on the major package.el community maintained repos, MELPA Stable and MELPA repos. All the major modes derive from clojure-mode and provide more or less the same functionality. Differences can be found mostly in the font-locking - e.g. ClojureScript has some built-in constructs that are not present in Clojure. The proper major mode is selected automatically based on the extension of the file you're editing. Having separate major modes gives you the flexibility to attach different hooks to them and to alter their behavior individually (e.g. add extra font-locking just to clojurescript-mode) . -

Emacs Dashboard
An extensible 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. -

Emacs Markdown Mode
Emacs Markdown Mode
markdown-mode is a major mode for editing Markdown-formatted text. The latest stable version is markdown-mode 2.5, released on Feb 12, 2022. See the release notes for details. markdown-mode is free software, licensed under the GNU GPL, version 3 or later. The primary documentation for Markdown Mode is available below, and is generated from comments in the source code. For a more in-depth treatment, the Guide to Markdown Mode for Emacs covers Markdown syntax, advanced movement and editing in Emacs, extensions, configuration examples, tips and tricks, and a survey of other packages that work with Markdown Mode. Finally, Emacs is also a self-documenting editor. This means that the source code itself contains additional documentation: each function has its own docstring available via C-h f (describe-function), individual keybindings can be investigated with C-h k (describe-key), and a complete list of keybindings is available using C-h m (describe-mode). -

Flycheck
On the fly syntax checking for GNU Emacs
Flycheck is a modern on-the-fly syntax-checking extension for GNU Emacs, intended as replacement for the older Flymake extension which is part of GNU Emacs. For a detailed comparison to Flymake see Flycheck versus Flymake. It uses various syntax checking and linting tools to automatically check the contents of buffers while you type, and reports warnings and errors directly in the buffer, or in an optional error list. Out of the box Flycheck supports over 40 different programming languages with more than 80 different syntax-checking tools, and comes with a simple interface to define new syntax checkers. Many 3rd party extensions provide new syntax checkers and other features like alternative error displays or mode line indicators. Flycheck needs GNU Emacs 24.3+, and works best on Unix systems. Windows users, please be aware that Flycheck does not support Windows officially, although it should mostly work fine on Windows. -

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. -

clj-refactor.el
CIDER extension that provides powerful commands to refact Clojure code
A CIDER extension that provides powerful commands for refactoring Clojure code. clj-refactor provides powerful refactoring functionality for Clojure projects. It complements the refactoring functionality you'd find in clojure-mode and CIDER. The more advanced refactorings require our nREPL middleware refactor-nrepl. From version 2.2.0 onwards if cider-jack-in is used it is injected automatically. profiles.clj or profile.boot don't need to be modified anymore for the above usecase! On the other hand if a standalone REPL or an embedded nREPL server is used you will need to manually add this dependency. The analyzer refactor-nrepl uses needs to eval the code too in order to be able to build the AST we can work with. If that causes side effects like writing files, opening connections to servers, modifying databases, etc. performing certain refactoring functions on your code will do that, too. -

org-super-agenda
Supercharge your Org daily/weekly agenda by grouping items
This package lets you “supercharge” your Org daily/weekly agenda. The idea is to group items into sections, rather than having them all in one big list. Now you can sort-of do this already with custom agenda commands, but when you do that, you lose the daily/weekly aspect of the agenda: items are no longer shown based on deadline/scheduled timestamps, but are shown no-matter-what. So this package filters the results from org-agenda-finalize-entries, which runs just before items are inserted into agenda views. It runs them through a set of filters that separate them into groups. Then the groups are inserted into the agenda buffer, and any remaining items are inserted at the end. Empty groups are not displayed. The end result is your standard daily/weekly agenda, but arranged into groups defined by you. You might put items with certain tags in one group, habits in another group, items with certain todo keywords in another, and items with certain priorities in another. -

zenburn-theme for Emacs
The Zenburn colour theme ported to Emacs
Zenburn for Emacs is a direct port of the popular Zenburn theme for vim, developed by Jani Nurminen. It's my personal belief (and that of its many users I presume) that it's one of the best low-contrast color themes out there and that it is exceptionally easy on the eyes. This theme uses the "new" (it used to be new several years ago when I created this package) built-in theming support available starting with Emacs 24.1. You can support the development of Zenburn for Emacs via GitHub Sponsors, ko-fi, PayPal and Patreon. Zenburn for Emacs is already bundled into Emacs Prelude. If you're a Prelude user - you're probably already using Zenburn, since it's Prelude's default color theme. You can load Zenburn at any time by M-x load-theme zenburn. If you'd like to tweak the theme by changing just a few colors, you can do so by defining new values in the zenburn-override-colors-alist variable before loading the theme. -
