Emacs 29.1 Stuttery scrolling with (pixel-scroll-precision-mode)
Agreed. I've had success with beacon-mode for the same purpose. Making C-v and M-v scroll by half pages also helps.

Configuring emacs
I’d add that for 1) beacon is a good package. For 2), this may be an issue where you have multiple emacs configuration files. This is a serious problem. 3) be patient, and use the magic GC hack. To add to that, you should probably set the GC threshold to be high. 4) projectile? 5)emacs -nw.

If you like Straight, you should try Elpaca
The second one is a little bit more complicated. For a number of packages I kind of abuse use-package/straight to separate out setup of different files/modes contained within the same package into their own use-package statement. Good example of this is my setup for helm. ) For example, after the normal (use-package helm …) statement, I have the below which configures helm-files related stuff, which comes from helm-for-files.el within the helm package:

How to use Emacs 29 Tree-sitter?

How Can I Start the Daunting Task of Making my Own Config?
I'm two months in (without any programming experience) and I've gone through various re-writes (from a literate .org init to a modular setup akin to Emacs Prelude or Siren configurations. (See: https://github.com/jimeh/.emacs.d)
