Emacs noob here. Is there a way to fold docstrings in python files?
Thanks in advance!

[Elpy](https://github.com/jorgenschaefer/elpy) allows to do that with
its [folding](https://github.com/jorgenschaefer/elpy/blob/master/elpy.
el#L3199) module.

If you don't want to install Elpy, the folding module is based on
hideshow, so it should not be too hard to extract the code.

Thanks! Turns out I'm already using elpy, just didn't know about the
folding module. I only needed to actually enable it (as it is not
enabled by default in doom emacs apparently) and now it works. Thanks
again for all your help.
