| | Introduction This post will be a brief tour on writing (work/university) assignments in org-mode, with the goal of producing a nicely typesetted PDF document without having to use much LaTeX. Everything mentioned will also apply to Emacs in general, but Doom Emacs comes with all the features I mention. Prerequisites Basic knowledge of org-mode, LaTeX (if math required), and Emacs. (Very) Quick Org-Mode Primer Org-mode is a plain-text hierarchical markup language.

| | With Emacs, org mode and org-babel, it's possible to evaluate source code samples embedded in your org files and have the output of said evaluation appear inline. This makes for a beautiful literate programming environment. It also enables one to include graphs in one's documents (org mode, PDF, HTML presentations or blog posts) by using for example GraphViz. This blog post (obviously authored using Emacs and Org mode) contains short instructions for doing so.
