Vedang Manerikar — Clojure, Emacs Lisp, and developer tooling

Hi, I'm Vedang 👋

Website Emacs Lisp Pi CLI Clojure Python Developer Tooling

I like building practical tools for developers and knowledge workers. A lot of my open-source work lives at the intersection of Emacs, Clojure, knowledge workflows, and developer ergonomics. More recently, I've been exploring agent-oriented tooling.
