- Keybindings aren't comprehensively listed anywhere (that I know of)
- You have to go to the individual packages that are loaded and figure out how to use them
- There is some discoverability where if you type C-w you'll start to see all the window related keybindings, so you can at least get into the habit of checking there when you forget something
- I'm used to using C-c to return to normal mode in Vim which doesn't work here so my suggestion is to use C-[, jk or ESC I guess
- Autosave is disabled by default due to a preference of the maintainer, so you'll want to install a package or tweak the config to enable that
- I find window management difficult right now compared to something more conventional like VSCode or even compared to something like i3, it just doesn't seem to do what I want
Overall I'd say its like good guard rails but you'll probably need to dive into Emacs stuff to accomplish certain tasks. With that said, the vim emulation is miles better than what's available in VSCode.
There is also Spacemacs which aims to be much more comprehensive but I haven't tried that.
