My list of Emacs packages

magit

The best git interface I’ve ever used. I cannot imagine using anything else but this for git.

which-key

Shows completion keybinds for incomplete keys. Gets you familiar with modes.

ivy + ivy-rich

Completion engine for emacs. Comes with rich observability features like

• Entities(command, function, variable…) docstring
• Keybind of commands

and much more features to make using the minibuffer easy.

golden-ratio

Automatically expands the window you switch to. Very big, split like crazy and stop caring.

helpful

A better *help* buffer. Just because its better.

keycast

A nice to have utility to see which commands are being executed.

There are other modes as well which I use, I only included utility packages here. You can check out my .emacs config here
