Mickey walks you chapter by chapter, while you build your own emacs configuration as you learn new things. Trust me, that book is well worth the price tag. In my opinion, as of 2023, the best way to learn emacs the right way is through the textbook 'Mastering Emacs' by Mickey Petersen. every master uses the package smex to remember keybindings Some of the opinions of the author have been stated as facts:. If it happens to be “friendly”, it’s just the coincidence.Īlso, cargo culting everybody to use the Evil mode for Vim bindings in Emacs is also probably bad advice, unless you are teaching emacs to a vim user.Īs a beginner, you are better off starting your emacs config from scratch. I’m NOT saying the master’s setup is “newbieįriendly”. When I say “on the shoulders of giants”, I’m stressing that you need I’m lucky to stick to his setup because pullingįrom his git branch gets me updated with the latest cool things in Since Steve Purcell loves new technologies and update his setupįrequently, it may be a little harder to follow him for beginners.
