I’ve been exploring Emacs vanilla and found some gems. I’ll list those and would like you to list as well in special those that you migrated to from a non built-in package.

  • fido: minibuffer completion
  • tab-bar: flexible tabs for frames and windows
  • desktop.el: saving/restoring sessions
  • rgrep: grep recursively
  • ibuffer: has filtering functionality
  • vc: frontend to git, mercurial, but very limited in comparison to magit
