This looks like it solves a very real pain point for anyone getting started with Emacs, and likely many people who have been using Emacs for a long time sub-optimally. Could save hours or days of learning about how to configure Emacs.
Reminds me of a Spring Initializr, as a way to quickly get started with a new tech tool.
- michaelanckaert 5y agoFor me, configuration a tool or system is actually a likeable experience. It's almost a hobby to keep tinkering with my various configs. Of course, that doesn't mean every tool should require massive amounts of time invested in configuring sensible defaults. Not everyone wants to do this.
- taude 5y agoI think people will eventually do this. But giving them a sane, simple starting point is probably a good idea. (Though I awhile ago threw all mine out and went with basic Doom setup, but everyone's journey will be different)
