Spacemacs with Python layer VS Evil

Spacemacs (most stars & most contributors) and DoomEmacs (most commits) were 1st and 2nd, but I wanted to keep emacs key binding and so I chose spacemacs with emacs bindings. Source: about 1 year ago

Oh I see. Alternative, and I know it's not Vim, but Spacemacs (the project Spacevim is based on) is quite active. It comes with Vim emulation, some people say it's even better than Vim itself (evil-mode). Source: about 2 years ago

Open the [https://github.com/syl20bnr/spacemacs](repository) and check the languages used in the github page. It's emacs lisp. Source: about 2 years ago

If you want a "modern" version of Emacs that "works" out of the box, I would recommend using a distribution like Doom Emacs or Spacemacs. I personally have never used Spacemacs as a daily driver, but it seems to look more modern. Doom Emacs is faster, and more minimal. Depends on your choice. Source: over 2 years ago

Also, if you don't wanna bother configuring all of emacs yourself, there are prebuilt distributions around like spacemacs or doom emacs as well. Source: almost 3 years ago

2 stripe blue belt here! I used to use Vim for everything other than Java development and have now adopted Emacs in the same way. I am using it for Clojure and Common Lisp development along with org mode, irc, rss, git and file management I started with Evil mode and then moved to Xah fly keys before sticking to the emacs bindings. Having the caps lock key bound to CTRL helped me a lot. I don't know if it makes... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

Emacs is a text ecosystem. And it's trivial to add these shortcuts. Evil[0] basically rewires everything to be Vim. [0]: https://github.com/emacs-evil/evil. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

I would *highly* recommend using vim keybindings if you're just getting into it (Doom or just evil). I switched from vim to emacs and tried to rough it with the default keybindings thinking that otherwise I wasn't /really/ using emacs, but I was wrong! I've been using org-mode/emacs for ~2 years now and I've slowly been migrating everything into it as I find useful tools/modes/etc (and now thanks to u/ilemming I... Source: 12 months ago
