Selectrum now deprecated in favor of Vertico
I noticed over the weekend that the venerable Selectrum package made by Radon Rosborough has been deprecated in favor of Daniel Mendler's Vertico package.

Sidekick is a Emacs package that provides information about a symbol inside a single window.
https://github.com/radian-software/selectrum is getting superceded by https://github.com/minad/vertico within just a year or two.

Straight.el: next-gen, purely functional package manager for the Emacs hacker
I have been using straight for a while now and I think it is great! The ability to lazy load everything by default does a lot to make Emacs snappier (or at the very least, faster to boot). Being able to pull packages directly from git (be it local or a forge) makes package development a lot easier. raxod has a lot of really sleek, modern emacs packages that I would encourage everyone to check out, spectrum[0] and ctrf[1] in particular are really great as well.

- Keybinding autocompletion / helper. Like in doom emacs.

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.

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.

How to Make Emacs Look Cooler with Simple Customization
FYI, selectrum is getting deprecated in favor of vertico. https://github.com/minad/vertico/issues/237
What are some alternatives?
When comparing selectrum and vertico you can also consider the following projects:
helm - Emacs incremental completion and selection narrowing framework
consult - :mag: consult.el - Consulting completing-read
swiper - Ivy - a generic completion frontend for Emacs, Swiper - isearch with an overview, and more. Oh, man!
doom-emacs - An Emacs framework for the stubborn martian hacker [Moved to: https://github.com/doomemacs/doomemacs]
icomplete-vertical - Global Emacs minor mode to display icomplete candidates vertically
corfu - :desert_island: corfu.el - COmpletion in Region FUnction
ivy-rich - More friendly interface for ivy.
