What's the good window manager for a beginner?
As far as wms go, I always liked fluxbox and xmonad. Openbox has its fans, and i3 is very popular. I prefer a de over a wm but I know a lot of people use i3.

How to install v0.17 on Arch
How are you installing the xmonad code that you try to build? Have you cloned https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad and https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad-contrib into your ~/.xmonad directory, and then running stack init?

Yode-Nvim - Focused Code Editing for NeoVim
I had little success with manual splits because I was busy resizing most of the time. Therefore the idea with windows that are always as big as their content. The code for the windows is already built so that the logic per tab is interchangeable, how the windows should behave. You just have to implement more layouts, as I call them. The concept comes from Xmonad. In this link you can see examples when you scroll down to "Layouts": https://hackage.haskell.org/package/xmonad-contrib

I get this error on startup (error Invalid face org-level-1)
I am pretty sure the problem is here but I don't know what the best solution is. I copy and pasted this from Distro Tub's dotfiles.

How to set everything up on laptop to use xmonad
Or if you want some more well-rounded configs you can look in other people's gitlabs or githubs. A really good one of a youtuber I watch would be Distrotube's: https://gitlab.com/dwt1/dotfiles/-/blob/master/.xmonad/xmonad.hs Of course you'd still have to download the relevant software the config uses, such as trayer.

How to install (and customise) Alacritty Terminal Emulator in Ubuntu (20.04+)
All the configurations are commented out and you can uncomment out the specific things you would like to customize. If you already have some in mind, go ahead, uncomment and edit. If you're just starting out, try changing something small like say the font and see if you like it then continue customising your terminal through small changes from there. You can also check out this one here for inspiration.

How to overcome nausea and depression when switching from vi to emacs? Please help
The second is to take the ideas from Doom Emacs. Based on your writing I don't think using a pre-packaged pre-configured tool fits your personality. This video shows you how to construct this config using Literate Programming. I highly recommend the experience. You will learn a lot.
