Vanilla, discoverable Emacs configuration

This is my Emacs configuration. It's simple, declarative, and discoverable. It requires Emacs 30+.

Principles

• Configure declaratively: Prefer use-package and easy-customize over other configuration methods
• Keep it simple: Apply KISS; The init.el should be simple enough to be read by a novice
• Keep the overhead low: Install only the neccessary 3rd-party packages
  • markdown-mode is installed for pretty-printed eglot documentation, and for markdown formatting.
• Use the included batteries: The standard Emacs packages are tested & curated by the Emacs community, use them!
• Retain the defaults as much as possible: We try to keep the default keybinds as much as possible and avoid rebinding everything

Requirements

• Emacs 30+

Features

• desktop-save-mode for simple session persistence
• undo-redo for traditional undo behavior (requires Emacs 28+)
• whitespace-mode to visualize trailing whitespace & tab indentations
• vertical-fido-mode for improved completion & discoverability
• recentf-mode to reopen past edits

Custom keybinds

Use M-x describe-personal-keybindings to show custom keybindings. All custom keybinds are registered via `use-package'.
