    The documentation website Emacs deserves

  • Just https://emacsdocs.org/ And you'll be able to start your journey! If you need to program with it, try searching Emacs-lsp. You'll find everything you need on the doc. And use the built in doc.

  • evil

    The extensible vi layer for Emacs.

  • Also there is evil to make emacs a modal editor. I don't use vim nor evil but since you already know your way around vim it might be useful for you.

  • InfluxDB

  • dot-emacs

    My .emacs.el file and other personal Emacs goodies

  • Otherwise I guess I (and a lot of other people) started with a blank config where I copied lines from colleagues and later inserted lines from other people's configs on the internet. A lot of "famous" emacs people have their configs online, for example Sacha Chua or John Wiegley. They may be a bit confusing for a beginner but usually it works to copy code into your own file.
