An example of how to customize the #denote note-taking package in #emacs

I created a new entry point called my/denote/url that retrieves a URL from the system clipboard. It then automatically populates the URL property and suggests a title for the note based on the website’s title.

This customization simplifies the process of creating a new note from a website.

Please be aware that this customization is opinionated in terms of note format (#orgmode) and the desired prompts (title, keywords, subdirectory).
