Hooking up with Emacs

I've been playing with Emacs for a while and honestly Its pretty good. While using Emacs I felt there's something lack with the basic setup like snippet, macros, and mark that I get from (n)vim. But it turns out Emacs has it but the keybinding is confusing to me. I'm so used to (n)vim so I set Emacs with Evil for vim bindings and the transition is smooth sailing.

My config is based on someone else's config. It's nothing revolutionary but it gets the job done. I added and changed couple things

• using straight.el instead package.el
• using general.el to leave insert mode with jk
• vulpea.el for managing org-mode
• move-text.el for moving text up and down
• gruvbox for the theme
• yasnippet.el for easy blogging: so I don't need to type word for words

With these things setup now I can comfy cooding with muh waifu, of course she's not real and also I don't think my life is real too.
