i don’t know why anyone would use emacs is what i thought first
but now i’ve developed an understanding about why people use it
now i want to switch to emacs but the learning curve is insane
is there a tutorial for learning to use emacs step by step because i want to learn emacs fast and the only way to do it is using a well guided video series i believe or maybe a well made website or blog post
because i now just get flustered when i start using emacs because there’s so much to learn
what should i learn first is my question because just reading help document doesn’t help a noob like me?
as of now i can only give around 3 hours to learn emacs but i would give more if i could
i have used neovim with lsp for 1 year now how much time would it take for me to be faster at emacs than i’m currently in vim?
i would really apprecitate the answer of highlighted question and the main question
also please don’t give an answer like it would depend on many things ( of course it would depend on many factors)
but i want to know how much time would it take for you to be better at emacs you would have been at vim after learning it for around a year+
Unpopular advice but: turn on the menus / use Emacs as a GUI program.
The menus are good and help you with stuff you may want to find, or things you didn’t know you wanted.
Alternatively? Escape X (M-xin “the lingo”): a type-to-find for certain kinds of commands Emacs can do. Can also list the keyboard combinations.
