Could you share your selectrum/ivy/helm config or give me some tips? That's one part of Emacs config, in particular, that gives me the willies -- I can't figure out if I'm supposed to choose between ivy and helm or use them together or even really what the differences are between the two. I haven't even heard of selectrum, lol. That's one of the hardest parts of trying to config Emacs in general -- so many packages and they all seem to do the same thing and I think I need just one but sometimes people have like, all of them installed. It's confusing!

You can find my config here: https://github.com/ashton314/.dotfiles https://github.com/ashton314/.dotfiles I use selectrum for just about everything. The only reason I keep ivy and counsel around as for the packages counsel-rg (ripgrip with real time results) and swiper. It is a very good question you ask. I have spent many months experimenting with these various packages. I actually wrote a blog post about switching from Helm to Ivy. I suppose I should write a follow up on about switching to Selrctrum. If you would like to talk more one on one, please DM me via one of the channels listed on my blog: https://ashton.wiersdorf.org/about/#contact https://ashton.wiersdorf.org/about/#contact
