I was wondering that too. However it ended up having the best highlighting and indenting packages for the languages I was using. It was available on most platforms and most of all worked in an SSH session.
I wouldn't try to learn everything at once would just learn:
1) How to quit
2) How to save a file
3) Basic navigation: up, down, left, right, end of line, beginning of line
4) How to cut a line, and how to paste a line
Some of those you might already know from using bash or even basic text editing on macOS.
- dkns 8y agoI tried giving Emacs a shot again recently because I now use windows at work and it's easier to get Emacs working on windows with all the features rather than trying to get vim/neovim with myriad of different outside plugins. But I won't be switching simply because indentation in html/css/js files is off and apparently Emacs is bad at handling stuff like jsx and web stuff in general. Shame.
