As others have said, all those features are built in (or are a three-line tweak away). The tricky part is configuring it. I agree that defaults matter and I would love to see them change. That said, you might like looking at my Emacs Bedrock [1] starter kit. It’s not like other kits like Doom, which act like a distro unto themselves and need fiddling, updates, etc. Bedrock focuses on tweaking default behavior, rather than pouring on package after package. It’s basically all the things that I would make default if I could. There are a few “extras” that provide clear examples of how to configure e.g. language server or evil-mode support. Let me know if it helps. :) [1]: https://sr.ht/~ashton314/emacs-bedrock/ https://sr.ht/~ashton314/emacs-bedrock/
