  • crafted-emacs

    A sensible base Emacs configuration.

    I'll second https://github.com/SystemCrafters/crafted-emacs

  • What you wrote is almost the mission statement of emacs-groundup. Give it a go!

  • use-package

    A use-package declaration for simplifying your .emacs

    I have been crafting my emacs config for about 10 years. I started with vanilla and intentionally stayed away from frameworks. About two years ago I declared config bankruptcy and went down for a rewrite using use-package and straight.

  • straight.el

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

  • emacs.d

    emacs configuration using straight.el and use-package (by dmvianna)

    I will definitely copy/paste some of it into mine. If you want to peek it it is here. However I already have ideas about how I will restructure it next time I attempt doing it...

  • InfluxDB

    Access the most powerful time series database as a service. Ingest, store, & analyze all types of time series data in a fully-managed, purpose-built database. Keep data forever with low-cost storage and superior data compression.

  • melpa

    Recipes and build machinery for the biggest Emacs package repo

    I'd suggest holding off on installing a lot of external packages in the beginning. But when you do, you will probably want to enable the MELPA repository in addition to the official ELPA repository (which is already enabled by default).

  • kickstart.el

    Shameless plug: https://github.com/erikbackman/kickstart.el - Very minimal with sane defaults - Plug management with lazy loading but does not use separate files as I find it pointless myself.
