How do you suggest me approaching Emacs coming from VIM?
I prefer not to depend on any existing frameworks, here is the emacs/VIM config I wish I had starting out - minimal & commented: emacs-for-vimmers

I'm new to emacs
If you don't want a starter kit - but are interested in a commented vim-like setup, checout: emacs-for-vimmers. Even if you are not into VIM, the defaults may be of interest to you.

Helping a long time Vim user try Emacs
I came from a fairly similar place, this is a fairly minimal package set to have a useful evil-mode up and running: https://github.com/ideasman42/emacs-for-vimmers
-
Flagging words and phrases in Emacs
This is a fully self contained config made by making minor changes to emacs-for-vimmers that works in my tests.

Moving from Doom to Vanilla

I want to give up Vim
Suggest https://github.com/ideasman42/emacs-for-vimmers to get you up and running with something approximating a typical development configuration in VIM.

Advice on config hacking / yak shaving / bikeshedding
That said, I found that setting up evil wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. If you want to see how simple it can be, you can take a look at the pull request I linked in the original post. I can also recommend taking a look at this config for another example of how setting it up can actually be very simple: https://github.com/ianyepan/yay-evil-emacs

Basic customization to make emacs more modern
I personally also maintain a lightweight config with better defaults, aimed at new Emacs users, perhaps it could help you too: https://github.com/ianyepan/yay-evil-emacs

[Package shout-out] All-the-icons-ivy-rich is awesome
And here for an unopinionated literate config I maintain: https://github.com/ianyepan/yay-evil-emacs
-
How do I turn my customized Emacs into itβs own distribution like Spacemacs Or Doom
I suggest you look at other publically shared configs and "distributions". E.g. yay-evil-emacs is one such "distribution", and is different from the author's personal config.
-
Where can I learn about emacs.init?
If you feel lost in basic customization of Emacs, perhaps my project yay-evil could help. It's fairly simple to follow (if I may say so myself) and has over 270 stars -- so at least quite a few beginners have found it useful.
-
Where to start with init.el
This is not a video styled tutorial, but I actively maintain a yay-evil framework aimed at beginners to help them build their own vanilla config. Feel free to give it a try! https://github.com/ianpan870102/yay-evil-emacs
