Follow the install instruction here: https://github.com/zilongshanren/spacemacs#install , make sure your are using the fork repo: https://github.com/zilongshanren/spacemacs

Nothing difference!
The forked version is only a few commits behind the original repo, becuase sometimes the original repo can’t functional well.
- It’s a highly optimized Spacemacs configuration, you should use the configuration together with the develop branch of the officially Spacemacs.
- I prefer to the
Ivy
completion interface, so I removed many helm related packages but keep thehelm-ag
package. Thecounsel-ag
counterpart is not powerful ashelm-ag
. - I also removed some packages I don’t have any chance to use. The complete list lies in the exclude section of the
init.el
file. - I also exclude the
Spaceline
package, cause it’s easy to frozen the Emacs with this package enabled. So I create my own mode line configuration based onSpaceline
. - The
Swiper
package sometimes frozen the Emacs UI when you split the window with very long lines. You could use `pkill -SIGUSR2 -i emacs` command line to break the frozen.
