The software that transcends time

A few years ago, a co-worker adviced to get started with vanilla Emacs. It made a lot of sense because I was writing Clojure. Emacs has now become my goto editor. I now understand the phrase, “Emacs has taken over my life”.

This repo is my version of Emacs:

  • It’s mostly stable but a work in progress
  • It’ll probably always be like that
  • Is very opinionated
  • Is particularly suited to Clojure development
  • Introduces minimal custom shortcuts
  • Is on the evil-side due to objective reasons

Key Features

Project management using Projectile

Any directory with a .git folder is considered as a project. To open a project, just open a file in that directory using Cx Cf. The project will then be cached and accessible via Cc Cp.

Sidebar using Neotree

Sidebar is bound to f8 key. It is useful while trying to understand the structure of a new project.

Focus mode using darkroom

Bound to f1, focus mode helps with distraction free writing.

Search using Swiper

Swiper is gem bound to Cs. It makes the native search functionality 10x more awesome.

Opinionated Features

  • Straight.el for package management
  • Powerline
  • Dracula theme
  • Org Journal for notes

Things that can be improved

  • Startup time
  • Documentation

Using this repo

In my early days, Github helped me learn from various public configurations. This config is designed to be barely vanilla. It’s best consumed by readin the source code and taking parts that interest you, or by reading my notes about how I use it.

Notes

The notes are not written in a publication form. You might find occasional typos and incomplete ideas, but should be helpful in general.
