I have recently been trying Emacs because I have heard it is
|
||||
highly configurable and has amazing features like
|
||||
<a href="https://orgmode.org/" target="_blank">Org Mode</a> and
|
||||
<a href="https://magit.vc/" target="_blank">Magit</a>. My initial
|
||||
impression was that it was extremely difficult to use due to its
|
||||
unintuitive design and high reliance on keybindings. After
|
||||
watching some videos by
|
||||
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/c/SystemCrafters" target="_blank"
|
||||
>System Crafters</a

|
||||
configuring emacs to my liking. I especially liked the

>personal emacs configuration</a

|
||||
have come to realize that there are just too many missing features
|
||||
and issues that I kept having to find resolutions for. This is why
|
||||
I decided to switch to
|
||||
<a href="https://github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs" target="_blank"
|
||||
>Doom Emacs</a
|
||||
>, which is a distribution of Emacs that comes pre-configured with
|
||||
stability, performance, and vim keybindings in mind. My experience
|
||||
with Doom so far has been great. It works a lot more like what I
|
||||
expected my personal Emacs configuration to be, but is much easier
|
||||
to use and configure. Startup time is significantly faster,
|
||||
editing files is faster, vim-like keybindings are already setup,
|
||||
and it is functional out of the box. You can checkout my Doom
|
||||
Emacs configuration on

|

can compare and make improvements.
