The built in tutorial followed by a couple of weeks of forcing yourself to use it for basic editing tasks until you find yourself comfortable again. Don’t try to recreate a full IDE experience at first. Try to walk before you run. The beauty of emacs comes from discovering that it solves problems you didn’t know you had rather than being a drop in for your current IDE.

- kstrauser 3y agoWhile tempting, don’t do that. Use it as-is for a little bit to see its way of doing things before you start tweaking. My init.el adds quite a bit of functionality but doesn’t change many default settings at all.
