Come to the vi side, no straights or drags. (And just as terrible to use for every starter as emacs is ;) )
Sorry, had to have the 1st vi post. ;D
I started learning Emacs at the same time I was learning to code. Once I found Doom it was pretty straightforward. Before that...it wasn't fun.
I'm currently trying out lazyvim, and I think the Emacs approach is a lot more accessible to beginners because:
it does everything on its own instead of relying on you knowing cli tools
:help is just sad when compared to C-h, and generally the in-editor docs and guides are a lot worse
Doom is a lot more opinionated than lazyvim, but it also requires a lot less manual setup
it's doom emacs(with vim bindings). I am currently using vim but wanted to learn emacs too as org mode seems interesting
Check magit as well, in case you use git. It was a game changer for me.
heard about it. will install it. thanks!
VI is the number of the beast! Install Emacs now and save your soul!
