This is an integration between the marvellous [[https://orgmode.org/manual/Capture.html][org-capture]] and the amazing [[https://github.com/joaotavora/yasnippet][YASnippet]] and the fabulous [[https://github.com/Kungsgeten/yankpad][Yankpad]].

Just put the =.el= file in your lisp scripts directory and load it like this:

#+begin_src elisp (use-package ya-org-capture :after yankpad :load-path "~/.emacs.d/lisp" :config (ya-org-capture/setup)) #+end_src

Now any time you define a org-capture template, you can integrate the powerful templating systems of Yankpad and YASnippet.

This is an example of capture template:

#+begin_src elisp (setq org-capture-templates `(("i" "some yasnippet capture template" entry (file "/tmp/test.org") "* TODO %^{Some title} \n%(ya-org-capture/make-snippet "img_")" :empty-lines 2) ("s" "some yankpad capture template" entry (file "/tmp/test.org") "* TODO %^{Some title} \n%(ya-org-capture/make-snippet "st")" :empty-lines 2))) #+end_src

Please check out these components docs ([[https://orgmode.org/manual/Using-capture.html#Using-capture][here]], [[https://kungsgeten.github.io/yankpad.html][here]], and [[http://joaotavora.github.io/yasnippet/][here]]) and authors because their work may give you great benefits!
