As an added bonus of being more minimal, this config should also be more portable across systems (I hope).
This config has the following explicit package dependencies:
- - Org: Karthinks build, required for LaTeX previews. Declared in ~init.el~.
- - Meow: For modal keybinds.
- - ~org-modern~: For a nicer looking Org mode, only 900 lines of elisp.
- - ~org-modern-indent~: To fix the indented codeblocks with ~org-modern~.
- - ~ultra-scroll~: For better smooth scrolling and faster general text scrolling when navigating by keyboard.

** Meow (modal editing)
This package is very important to me, I have been poisoned by ~vi~ and rely on the modal editing model to function properly.
