# rde Emacs introduction
Andrew Tropin (he/him)

[[!inline pages="internal(2022/info/rde-before)" raw="yes"]]

rde Emacs is a vanilla-flavored distribution of Emacs, which intergates
well with your OS, WM and rest of the environment.  It's built on top of
Guix Home project and allows to manage not only elisp packages and
configurations, but other dependencies like operating system packages,
user program configurations in a declarative and reproducible manner.

You don't need to follow complicated installation instructions, apply
workarounds and be afraid of updates: just do it, update rde, throw some
custom elisp code, declare and customize features you need or want to
try in a simple lisp (Scheme) file and you will get it.  Don't like the
result?  Just rollback to previous generation and EVERYTHING will work
as before.  Once you make it to your liking, it will work forever\*, even
if you move to a new laptop/workstation.
