It is fairly trivial to make something 'like it', but what people advocating for this stuff want is for it to be shipped with regular plain old normal GNU Emacs so they can set it up quickly and easily in an Emacs installation on a work laptop (and it may make it easier to convert people to Emacs for those who care about that).
replyI spent a lot of time making my own elisp config for a custom emacs experience and ended up getting something similar to Doom Emacs. So, I just switched to use Doom :)
replyThis is how I justify not switching back to vanilla, despite not really being an evil user. Doom's module system is really great for organizing a config.
replyYeah, it'd be easy, but the hard part is getting people to agree what the standard will be.
replyPlus, frankly, a lot of people (myself included) who want a richer experience are pretty much just happy turning on emacs keybindings in VSCode or IntelliJ or whatever.
Richer in vscode, i'm not so sure.
