This video explores a productivity workflow in Emacs that leverages window opacity, moving it beyond a purely aesthetic feature. The creator demonstrates how a translucent Emacs frame can be used as an overlay to view and control background applications, improving efficiency and saving screen real estate.
Emacs has been a trustworthy companion of mine for around 4+ years now. We’ve shared some highs and lows. I owe a major fraction of whatever conceptual depth I maintain in computer science to messing around with my tools.
Emacs is also the core of my first major youtube breakthrough.
I haven’t yet explored the emacs niche completely and will be investing more time into honing my repertoire and understanding what sort of mindset the tooling expects from you rather than just fitting emacs into my thoughts.
