Starter Kit Recommendation: Spacemacs, Doom, or Centaur
I switched from a hand-maintained config to Doom last year, and I can highly recommend it. It's very well organized, the community is very friendly and it works great. If you are interested, my config is at https://github.com/zzamboni/dot-doom/blob/master/doom.org.

Trouble with the init.el file using org
This sets the default for all the emacs-lisp blocks in the file, but you can still selectively write other blocks to different files, or not at all by specifying :tangle no. This way you can easily tangle multiple destination files from a single Org file. For an example, you can see my doom.org file, from which Doom's init.el, config.el and packages.el are all tangled.

Is there a way to create a beautiful presentation from Emacs?
In my config I have a hook I can call after saving the .org file to automatically export it and update the open browser to the current slide. This makes the process of updating/viewing the presentation a lot smoother. You can find my config here: https://github.com/zzamboni/dot-doom/blob/master/doom.org#revealjs-presentations

Long-Time Emacs User Looking to Level-Up (note-taking for classes)
Note that I said my "old config". A few months ago. I decided to try Doom Emacs. Over a couple of days, I ported most of the important bits of my decades-old, hand-maintained config, and in the process realized I could get rid of a lot of scaffolding (like the whole package-management bits in your config) by virtue of Doom's existing mechanisms, and also I could omit a lot of the configuration because Doom includes decent defaults for many things. I have not regretted moving to Doom. You can find my new config at https://github.com/zzamboni/dot-doom/blob/master/doom.org.

Problem requiring ox- packages in org-export-backends
If you use use-package, it works well to define the package to be loaded :after org. I have lots of examples in my old emacs config, for example: (use-package ox-hugo :defer 3 :after org :custom (org-hugo-use-code-for-kbd t)) I now use Doom Emacs, but the same technique can be used with use-package!. For example, from my Doom Config: (use-package! ox-leanpub :after org :config (require 'ox-leanpub-markdown) (org-leanpub-book-setup-menu-markdown)) HTH

There's also an analogous mode[0] for emacs that works great on my ARM Mac!

Wanted: A nice looking recent file dialog
There are nice looking distraction-free setups with https://github.com/joostkremers/writeroom-mode or https://github.com/rnkn/olivetti or https://github.com/joaotavora/darkroom or https://github.com/rougier/nano-emacs

An Alternative for Calmly Writer
I would look at emacs with some plugins installed to get the setup you want. A quick search led me to this: https://github.com/joostkremers/writeroom-mode

I am thinking about getting back into writing and using org mode for it.
Doom emacs already comes with writeroom-mode for distraction-free writing with doom-specific improvements in the :ui zen module.

Writers, what are your favorite underrated packages?
I really enjoy using writeroom-mode for distraction-free writing in Emacs. I have it bound to a key in org-mode, even.
