The org-mode file can be executed like a shell script (actually elisp script) to extract the init.el file. Can I see (an example)? Wondering how much goes into that init.el.

Sorry I couldn't post earlier. Here is a sample: https://paste.sr.ht/~gokuldas/30c47d1c2721111171a51ecc44f257c51123dcbc https://paste.sr.ht/~gokuldas/30c47d1c2721111171a51ecc44f257...

Not OP but here's mine: https://github.com/nathanvy/dotemacs https://github.com/nathanvy/dotemacs The .org file gets processed and the source code blocks extracted into an elisp-only file which is what actually gets executed. Some people prefer an alternate approach[0] with the "stub" init.el that just loads other modules.

  Thanks for sharing both of these examples!
