A set of modular Emacs Lisp configuration files that give GNU Emacs a clean, consistent, minimalist look with light (Material) and dark (Nord) themes. It stays close to vanilla Emacs with minimal dependencies and is designed for users to copy modules into their own configuration.
Use cases
- make emacs look modern and minimal
- apply a consistent light and dark theme to emacs
- start a clean emacs configuration from scratch
- customize emacs fonts and faces
- try a vanilla emacs setup without heavy packages
When to choose
- you want a simple, dependency-free emacs aesthetic close to vanilla
- you want modular config files to copy into your own init file
- you like Material or Nord color schemes
When to avoid
- you want a batteries-included distribution with many packages preconfigured
- you need an IDE-like emacs setup with LSP and completion out of the box
- you don't use GNU Emacs
