Improving Emacs Isearch Usability with Transient
I think which-key already solves exactly that: https://github.com/justbur/emacs-which-key

Evil mode's kinda hacky
As for the "complicated keybindings general" -- I assume because remembering things like C-x C-s is hard because of the shifted keystrokes? I get that, and there is in fact a solution for less used keybindings which I love, called 'which-key' https://github.com/justbur/emacs-which-key

Should I start with vanilla Emacs?
I would recommend installing the which-key package, which is a fantastic discoverability aid. If you ever want an example config to get some inspiration, I have one here: Emacs Bedrock

Best emacs configs for Javascript and/or users who don't like to memorize keybindings?
Make sure you have which-key installed and turned on. When using a keybinding that has a prefix (like C-x or C-c), it displays all the keybindings that start with that prefix.

Switched to Emacs a week ago, really thrilled so far. Looking for help on a few (somewhat advanced) questions.
there are some packages to help with the keybings, which-key shows a list of keybind and its command and (guru-mode)[https://github.com/bbatsov/guru-mode] enforces to use the "best" keybind, for exemple, it forces you to use C-n to move the cursor, blocking you to use the down key, and if you press the down key, it show a text in minibuffer to the best keybind.

Is anyone able to resize which-key side-window?
Thanks for confirming, I think it's an issue in which-key itself: https://github.com/justbur/emacs-which-key/pull/166

Too many keybindings
If you haven't already, definitely check out the package which-key.

Tell HN: Vim users, `:x` is like `:wq` but writes only when changes are made
> even though I'm a terminal user ... I really like the discoverability of GUIs, and that's where a good GUI is unbeatable by CLI.
CLI has poor discoverability? Sure; but even on the terminal, discoverability can still be good:
A couple of nice examples of discoverability in keyboard-focused programs:
- emacs' which-key[0]; there's a vim port[1] too. This shows you (some) of the available keybindings for the next input, and a short label. So you don't have to remember what `SPC h p ...` or all the options under `SPC f...`.. but it still helps to recall that `SPC h` is for 'help' related commands, `SPC f` for file related commands.
- emacs' magit[2][3]. Magit is so good at discoverability, that I'd rate it as the best tool for using git with. I've learned more about git from using it.

Creating and displaying cheatsheets of keybindings
Am I right in thinking this is quite similar to which-key?

What is your favorites plugins, themes or configuration details?
I really recommend tmux-thumbs . It is similar to extracto and you can pick up text from the screen with few key strokes.

Tmux lets you select and copy text with your keyboard
Only glanced at it but didn't see it mention 'V' which selects rows rather than characters. Which can be quite useful.
There are also tmux plugins to make some operations smoother.
https://github.com/fcsonline/tmux-thumbs
Like keyboard driven browsers uses hints, so file paths, git SHAs etc. are highlighted using a small hint and if you press it it is copied.
https://github.com/laktak/extrakto
Fuzzy search in current pane to insert/copy things of interest.
