I went with the ‘take vanilla and adjust’ route to learn proper Emacs config-ing. Turns out, you pretty much need to implement a bunch of features on top of the 90s Emacs to get a reasonable modern editor, and there isn't a system for config snippets that are smaller than a minor mode (aside from copy-pasting from StackOverflow). I've been meaning to try Doom for some time because it seems to be an answer to just that problem.
