editorconfig-emacs VS projectile

I might be misunderstanding, but would something like EditorConfig help? I have found it does a really good job of configuring indentation behavior for projects that use EditorConfig.

For #2, I've been pretty happy with dtrt-indent (https://github.com/jscheid/dtrt-indent) for DWIM indentation bouncing between projects.

I have yet to try apheleia, but I wouldn't be surprised if just enabling apheleia, dtrt-indent, and editorconfig-mode (https://github.com/editorconfig/editorconfig-emacs) in prog-mode-hook just did what you wanted.

> My only complaint is that I can never get Emacs's indentation to match what Prettier wants to do, so I'll type a bunch of code, prettier-on-save, and everything gets moved around.

I had this same issue, and it was annoying enough I continued to use https://github.com/editorconfig/editorconfig-emacs alongside prettier.

This does create another annoyance in having to configure editorconfig for new projects instead of relying on prettier alone.

Please take a look at Editor Config. It makes handling indentation specifics easy, here a link to the Emacs package.

I am using https://github.com/editorconfig/editorconfig-emacs

According to the repo you should only need to enable (editorconfig-mode 1) in the init, but there's also a troubleshooting section that might help out for your specific situation. Hope that helps!

Could you explain more about this setup? I'm not familiar with "projectile". Is this https://github.com/bbatsov/projectile the same thing you're referring to?

Sounds interesting. What I've done recently is open my vim in the folder that contains all the organization's repos (the ones I've cloned) and just run ripgrep inside vim to find examples or references to whatever I've seeking. Seems performant enough even without doing anything except letting ripgrep ignore git-ignored stuff (default behavior of ripgrep).

Sure. It sounds like it's working well enough. Here's a Github issue that may be of interest to you. Apparently you can get this behavior if there's a project marker file at a higher level.

With projectile you can define custom "run", "compile", "test" commands per project. Also there are pre-defined commands for many known project types.

Thanks for your detailed explanation, but no that is no that is not the question. This is projectile: https://github.com/bbatsov/projectile

I am currently trying with perspective rather than persp-mode, as it segregates the buffer list as I like (#1 above). I've got projectile with persp-projectile, and that seems to give me what I need for project navigation (#2 probably, still not 100%). I get some help in my mode line for project focus (#3, partially).
