An emacs theme that's well suited for modes using variable pitch: particularly org-mode and markdown-mode.

Looking for evil-mode resources for non vim users emacs beginners
If you want to try out some third-party packages in the beginning, I think the most "bang-for-your-buck" you'll get is with Avy. Also, expand-region. And specifically for writing: olivetti-mode, flyspell, dictionary, and Nicolas Rougier's Nano and Elegant Emacs setups.

ashton314/amethyst: An elegant Emacs setup optimized for non-technical writers
I’m flattered by the attention—and I hope this ends up being genuinely useful for some people—but I would be remiss to not emphasize the tremendous work done by Nicolas P. Rougier on elegant-emacs.

New Theme: Bespoke-themes (and request for any advice)
Hi all, I've been working on bespoke-themes, which started out as a fork of Nicolas Rougier’s amazing work on elegant-emacs and nano-emacs. It sports a similar vibe, though some of the base colors are different and it is slightly less minimal and "opinionated" than nano-emacs. It also has the benefit of being (I hope) easily incorporated into one's existing emacs as a theme, rather than the more "distro" style of nano-emacs (which is a great project, but maybe not for everyone). I'm hoping to submit it to MELPA before too long. Long story short though, I'm looking for advice on the following:
- How do I make emacs look clean and minimal?
-
How can I install this emacs elegant set up?
`git pull https://github.com/rougier/elegant-emacs.git`, which will create a folder called elegant-emacs with the contents of the git directory wherever you call it.
