Happy New Year 2022!

31 Dec 2021

Intro

In 2020, I managed to squeeze out just one post. Well, 2021 ran out just as fast as 2020. So here we are:

   2020-12-31-happy-new-year.md

This year, I'll review a really cool package I've found. It's not new, I just didn't manage to stumble upon it over the years. So it's new to me, and might be a useful pointer to others as well.

Emmet-mode

Emmet-mode is a wonderful Emacs package which greatly improves HTML code generation. It's based on Emmet, so you can read up on the syntax here. I've discovered it quite recently after reading Arjen Wiersma's 22-years-of-emacs.

The gist is that ul#nav>li.item$*4>a{Item $} will expand to:

<ul id="nav">
    <li class="item1"><a href="">Item 1</a></li>
    <li class="item2"><a href="">Item 2</a></li>
    <li class="item3"><a href="">Item 3</a></li>
    <li class="item4"><a href="">Item 4</
