  • straight.el

    🍀 Next-generation, purely functional package manager for the Emacs hacker.

  • If you use straight and override package, you'll get a lot of your desired functionality for free. Straight's docs are excellent. I started banging away on my own setup from scratch, and while not perfect, it does what I want and the total startup time is about 1.5 seconds without doing anything to try to optimize it. If you want to see it, check it out here. Like I said, there is lots of room for improvement, but it does work for me.

  • emacs.d

    Fast and robust Emacs setup. (by redguardtoo)

  • Ideally the startup time could be 0.5 seconds. But in order to reach this goal, you need a bit knowledge of Emacs Lisp. You also need read the code of other distributions. https://github.com/redguardtoo/emacs.d
