Pretty Org-Agenda
A few days ago this Reddit post about icons in the org-agenda view took me by surprise. In the past I have tried to find ways to use different colors depending on the context of a TODO item (without any success), but I never thought about using icons (or that org-mode even supports category based icons). I was even more impressed when a user called "asiledeneg" posted some elisp code to use the all-the-icons Emacs package. Thank you kind internet strangers for your code samples. You made my org-agenda glorious:
