I see, this makes sense, thank you for helping to clarify. That being said, I feel like this kind of the entire point of emacs. Everything is pieced together, and very little is "out of the box". At least, It's THE main reason I started learning Emacs, I was tired of the lack of interoperability of my different tools and I wanted an ecosystem that lets me piece things together as needed, like the Unix philosophy but with a tighter interactivity loop. It's a double edged sword, in that it takes much more effort to build and maintain, but there's nothing really like it. I still use VSCode and Jetbrains IDEs, but they don't drive my workflow like Emacs.
