Corgi

Corgi is an Emacs configuration for Clojure developers who like Vim-style modal editing.

The UX is heavily inspired by Spacemacs (similar SPC and , leader key bindings), but is about 50x less code. That makes it faster to start up, spiffier in use, and a lot more pleasant to deal with when things go wrong.

Corgi is an unbundled Emacs config. Instead of providing a full config we provide a set of packages (see corgi-packages) for use with Straight.el package manager. The Emacs config itself (the contents of ~/.emacs.d) are yours. We provide a sample-config.

If you're impatient then just copy the contents of that directory to ~/.emacs.d and start Emacs. The first run will need some time to install various packages, after that you're ready to go. Try SPC f e K to see all Corgi-specific key bindings.

Getting started

There is documentation in the form of a User Manual, we recommend reading it to get an idea about what is there.

There is a intro video guide to Corgi by @oxalorg here: youtube.com/watch?v=5q4UmX45ZlM

Status

After two years of development we've decided to call it 1.0. It's ready, go use it! Issue reports are very welcome, as are PRs, although it's always a good idea to sollicit feedback first via an issue, to make sure your changes are in line with the scope and philosophy of the project.

Corkey

The bulk of Corgi is just a selection of packages, with sprinkles of configuration and glue. The big exception is Corkey, this is our key binding layer, which builds on top of Evil, but does things in its own unique way, different from what you may be used to from Emacs, Evil, or Spacemacs.

The User Manual explains in more depth what Corkey is, how it works, and why it does things in a certain way. To make good use of Corgi we recommend getting familiar with Corkey.
