- The author uses Doom Emacs and org-roam for note-taking in their Computer Science degree.
- Notes are publicly available on GitHub, though they lack images and attachments due to copyright issues.
- Org-roam integrates seamlessly with Emacs, leveraging org mode and plain text for future-proof notes.
- Notes are structured hierarchically, mirroring course organization (e.g., by week or chapter).
- The author prefers listening during lectures and taking notes afterward to reinforce understanding.
- LaTeX and code snippets are incorporated into notes using Xenops and org mode features.
- Org-roam-ui (ORUI) was initially used for note review but was replaced by Emacs due to limitations.
- Keybindings and configurations for org-roam and Xenops are shared for setup reference.
