Org Mode is a markup language. A part of the Emacs, it's often used for notebook-like computing, writing documentation, and preparing static files for services like this one.

I bought into the dreams of "doing everything in Org-mode" for awhile, but, while nice and convenient, the system ultimately is not intended to be some expressive database for all of these different types of data1 cached in plain text. It's a decent document format that's annoying and difficult to parse, but I have a ton of legacy work in Org so I'm going to stick with the format in part throughout my notes.

This post and the emacs docs are incredibly helpful for documentation.

Basic Formatting

The structure of an org-mode file is defined with nested headings.

: * Heading 1
: ** Heading 2
: *** Heading 3
: *** And so forth...

It supports several flavors of text:

*bold*, /italic/, _underlined_, +strikethrough+, =monospace=.

Links are rendered [[https://jacob.chvatal.com][with description]]
or without: https://karl-voit.at/2017/09/23/orgmode-as-markup-only/

Lists can be
- ordered
  - have sub-headings
    1. support enumeration
    2. as needed
- have definitions :: true.
+ works as well
- [ ] can be unfinished
- [X] or complete

: or rendered as preformatted text.
def logical():
    return f'Org mode can also'
           f'render code from many languages!'
echo "it supports any language that is supported by Emacs"
return "and can even display the result of evaluated code!"
print("Sometimes...")
It Contains Great Tables
42 With
Native Support!

It has a single standard, and isn't a 'flavor' of markdown or rst2!

Plugins

The best part about org mode isn't its simplicity and flexibility โ€“ its that it has become an integral component of the Emacs ecosystem.

The format has support for calendars, TODO lists, and READMEs, so it's flexible enough to express a variety of ideas that are conducive to a primarily text-based user interface.

  1. Can I place a footnote here too? They should be lifted from the document flow, right?โ†ฉ

  2. Ironically, I'm going to use the Org mode page to test markdown footnotes.โ†ฉ
