When I started learning/using linux, choice of text editor was an alien concept to me. So I used whichever editor I found first. I liked kate a lot and used it for a long time until I discovered vim and its powers. Since then I have been using vim and have no major deal-breaking issues with it. Yet somehow curiosity made me explore GNU emacs. And now for past one year I am using GNU emacs for all the text editing stuff. I am still using evil mode and intend to continue using it as vim keybindings are amazing!
I started with spacemacs, then moved to doomemacs. But I have realized that until I write my own configuration, I won't fully understand this editor (if you prefer to call it so!). So, while still continuing to use doomemacs, I often tinker with my personal config created from scratch. This is in no way complete (I don't think there exists anything like complete or perfect config). So here you go. My custom config is available on my github and can be accessed here.
Take a look at it at your own risk. If there is something that you can improve, send a PR. If everything works fine and makes you happy - great! If something breaks on your system, blame yourself for trusting me :P.
Happy emacsing!
