Cool! Give it a go! Do you know about the Emacs Wiki? It was a pretty good resource many years ago when I had my own config. Not sure how it is these days though, but you might find some useful stuff there.

As for Spacemacs, I never got into it. At the time I found it more complicated than my own setup and a bit more confusing. I know a lot of people liked it though, and it was the first starter kit I'm aware of that really took off, so it might be worth a look!
