I am new to emacs (I made a commitment to getting used to linux) & currently intimidated Can you help me out here?

Has anyone here configured Emacs for:

  • Shell-scripting
  • Markdown
  • HTML+CSS
  • Rust

Don’t know where to start (I do know the bare-min basics on using Emacs as a text-editor)

      Yes org-mode is an excellent alternative to markdown. Emacs offers a ton of features out of the box related to org-mode. However it is intrinsically tied with Emacs, so if you aren’t sure about Emacs, then I wouldn’t suggest using org-mode as a replacement just yet. I do encourage you to give it a shot though!
