Did you try an Emacs distribution like Doom Emacs or Space Emacs? Or did you try vanilla Emacs? The latter is not going to give you a very good IDE type experience without said grit, etc, so I recommend the former.
Also, there are lots of ways to run on Windows other than native such as WSL, Linux VM, Docker, etc. Though I ran the Portacle distribution quite successfully on native Windows once (when it was my only choice).
- rk06 1y agoI tried standard emacs and space emacs. What tripped me most was keybindings(ctrl c doesn't work!?) and lack of command prompt (no idea if it didn't exist or needed plugins) There were few more pain points of "thinking in buffer" instead of files. All I can say is that entire experience made me appreciate the OOB experience of vscode.
