Title of the talk
GNU Emacs - tool for all your editing needs

Description
We spend most of our time writing things, be it code,
documentation, blog post, emails etc. The tool that one uses to write
things should be something which is highly configurable and focuses
more on productivity. This talk will cover reasons why one should use
GNU Emacs, it will cover various things Emacs can do out of the
box. How it's possible to extend it for various programming languages
and editing needs.

This talk will cover things like,

• Why Emacs?
• Basic navigation
• Buffers, Frames
• Using Org mode
• Shell mode as terminal emulator
• Macros
• Calendar, Calculator, eww etc
• Extensible nature of Emacs
• Using GNU Emacs as Python IDE by @akshay196

Prerequisites
If you want to try out things on your own machine, please come with a
laptop with GNU Emacs installed.
