This is my emacs configuration tree, base on purcell It works on OS X, Linux not sure about Windows(Try it out!)

Emacs itself comes with support for many programming languages. Here i add some as following:

• CSS / LESS / SASS /SCSS
• Javascript / Coffeescript
• Python
• Elm
• Common Lisp (with Slime)

In particular, there's a nice config for tab autocompletion, and flycheck is used to immediately highlight syntax errors in Ruby, HAML, Python, Javascript, PHP and a number of other languages.

The config should run on Emacs 23.3 or greater and is designed to degrade smoothly - see the Travis build - but note that Emacs 24 and above is required for an increasing number of key packages, including magit and flycheck, so to get full you should use the latest Emacs version available to you.

To make the most of the programming language-specific support in this config, further programs will likely be required, particularly those that flycheck uses to provide on-the-fly syntax checking.

To install, clone this repo to ~/.emacs.d, i.e. ensure that the init.el contained in this repo ends up at ~/.emacs.d/init.el:

git clone https://github.com/nowolfer/emacs.d.git ~/.emacs.d

Upon starting up Emacs for the first time, further third-party packages will be automatically downloaded and installed. If you encounter any errors at that stage, try restarting Emacs, and possibly running M-x package-refresh-contents before doing so.

Update the config with git pull. You'll probably also want/need to update the third-party packages regularly too:

M-x package-list-packages, then U followed by x.

To add your own customization, use M-x customize and/or create a file ~/.emacs.d/lisp/init-local.el which looks like this:

... your code here ...

(provide 'init-local)

If you need initialisation code which executes earlier in the startup process, you can also create an ~/.emacs.d/lisp/init-preload-local.el file.

If you plan to customize things more extensively, you should probably just fork the repo and hack away at the config to make it your own!

You might also want to check out emacs-starter-kit and prelude.

If you hit any problems, please first ensure that you are using the latest version of this code, and that you have updated your packages to the most recent available versions (see "Updates" above). If you still experience problems, go ahead and file an issue on the github project.
