Absolute Beginner's Guide to Emacs (2012)
I tried Emacs several time. The concept is cool but the execution makes it so that for me, in practice, VS Code is better.<p>I&#x27;d want either:<p>* tabs with a good UX<p>or<p>* super powerful, easy to use, integrated command and fuzzy file search, also with a good UX.<p>I&#x27;d also want a terminal at least as good as the VS Code one, on Windows, to use with Cygwin.<p>With Emacs I&#x27;d have to learn a big bunch of terminology no other editor uses for a bit of flexibility while losing quite a bit of functionality.<p>Sadly for Emacs, I think that most devs are closer to my train of thought than to that of existing Emacs users.
