I use which-key too, but that serves a different purpose.
which-key shows *all* bindings that begin with a prefix.
hydra creates a quick keymap that can be bound to any key of user's choice.
Then the user needs to just set that main binding, and all the sub-bindings
in that keymap stay the same.
- Hydra basics[1]
- Projectile hydra example[2]
- Rectangle operations[3]
(See many more examples in that wiki.)
Very vaguely speaking, which-key is a read-only utility, hydra is a create
+ read utility. We need the "create" portion for the org stucture template
replacement discussed on the Org thread. I understand that while hydra
cannot be integrated in emacs 26 and so Org cannot immediately start using
it, it will be very much useful to many packages in future if first hydra
is baked into the emacs core.
