Powering-up Special Blocks

Explore advanced techniques for enhancing special blocks in Emacs during this 29-minute conference talk from EmacsConf 2020. Dive into a real-world scenario that demonstrates the power of special blocks, and learn about feedback mechanisms using lisp, latex, phtml, and org. Discover how to set up modular UI components and navigate the trilemma of block definitions. Gain insights into rural mark parallel processing and examine where parallel blocks can be applied effectively. Follow along with practical examples, including converting latex to beamer and implementing syntax highlighting. Enhance your Emacs skills and unlock new possibilities for streamlining your workflow.
