 I've recently fallen in love with ~org-mode~, specifically when I use it with [[https://www.orgroam.com/][org-roam]].

 And that's pretty much it for now. Without further ado, let's jump into getting this up and running.

 Next thing on our list is custom styling. This can be achieved by first installing the <code>htmlize</code> package from <code>melpa</code> / <code>elpa</code>.  The EmacsWiki describes this as "a package for exporting the contents of an Emacs buffer to HTML while respecting display properties such as colors, fonts, underlining, invisibility, etc" (<a href="https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/Htmlize">reference</a>). If used "out-of-the-box", the buffer will be exported to HTML with all of the styles inlined (e.g. if you underline something in your org file, you will generate a <code>&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline"&gt;...&lt;/span&gt;</code>).  However, we are more interested in styling everything by ourselves: we don't want <code>htmlize</code> making assumptions about what underlining means to us! Luckily, <code>htmlize</code> gives us the option to export with class names instead of inline styles so that we can specify each style for ourselves.
