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?

Minibuffer faces for highlighting file names in a project while de-emphasizing long directory paths?
It would be great if you add your snippet to the Vertico wiki. Such tweaks can be quite instructive for others who want to achieve the same or similar effects for other completion commands.
-
Magit-branch-checkout list order
If you want completion to be sorted by your "most recent" I suggest you have a look at completion libraries. One example is vertico; when you enable savehist mode, the variable magit-revision-history, containing the branches you visited is persisted between sessions and vertico use that offer completions by most-recently-used, by default.

Input completion in emacs
I think vertico is best alternative recently, really fast on Linux, macOS and Windows.

Returning emacs user - what packages are common now?
An example relevant to your list would be some changes many people are taking with their completion framework - using package that leverage core emacs functionality rather than replacing it with a complete package that 'overrides' it. Consult, vertico, orderless and associate packages come to mind here. If you do a bit of a search you'll find plenty of info. Here is a video from Prot on the subject, but there are many others as well. I think Prot actually went on to write his own completion system to overlay native emacs functionality as well.

Best emacs configs for Javascript and/or users who don't like to memorize keybindings?
Next you "only" have to remember (elisp) function names. "Completion UIs" like ivy/counsel, icomplete, helm or vertico/consult, give you a nice auto completion list on M-x (choose the one of them, you like the most). Some of those Completion UIs will display existing keybindings and a short documentation for commands, near the auto complete candidates. So you will start to remember more keybindings without "learning sessions", just because invoking functions via keybindings is much faster (more convenient).

Why does elpaca make emacs startup so much faster?
Wow, interesting that my response is getting down voted. It seems not enough that I give away my work for free. Nevertheless I appreciate support from the community, as other Emacs package developers. The support is actually helpful. To clarify, publishing my configuration would translate into quite a bit of work, requiring separation of private and public bits.

How to combine rtags and vertico
I thought that lsp and rtags were different tools to do different things. Regarding lsp, I configured lsp-mode in my init file indeed! Currently I'm using Vertico (plus recommended sub-packages at github repository) and lsp-mode.
