[ELPA] Corfu (Completion Overlay Region FUnction)
Great! Do you plan to package this up? But do these posframes work correctly for you? I always observe https://github.com/tumashu/posframe/issues/74. And then the child frames are always a bit flickering. This is the reason why I went with overlays for corfu, and well ccfrfu does not sound as nice.

I'm curious to know what `company` does differently here than `corfu`. As a longtime user I couldn't be happier.

C —> Guile is moving in the wrong direction: rather than going from a poor-but-performant systems programming language like C to a pedagogic language like Scheme, it’d be a better idea to move to an rich-and-performant language meant for industrial systems programming like Common Lisp

Replacing packages with more "stripped down" packages
When I started using Emacs I was following the setup outlined by System Crafters, which I still think is a really good introduction. But, over the last few months I've started to replace packages with more "minimalist" or "stripped down" packages. I've switched from Ivy and Counsel to Vertico and Consult, and recently I switched from company to corfu for auto-completion.

Help a Linux kernel dev setup LSP
As for the Emacs configuration, you should only need a few lines of code, in order to get them up and running, if you are planning to keep your setup as close to vanilla as possible. If you are interested, you could additionally install a completion framework like company-mode to help you out.
