sudo apt-get install emacs

OP asked how to install developer tools, not how to install an OS ;)

I only have two emacs installs, home and work. But I keep them in sync, kinda, using:

So my .emacs/init.el looks like

  (use-package helm-projectile
    :ensure t
    :config (helm-projectile-on)
  )

Then discover that since last time I installed emacs on a fresh computer, somebody with an insane opinion about indentation "worked on" python-mode. Struggle with it a couple of days, then try to find an old enough emacs package for my latest Ubuntu that python-mode isn't broken.

This has happened twice.

This upgrade cycle magit (my main reason for using emacs in the first place) broke all my muscle memory and added a ton of featurea I don't want or use.

I wish I could just freeze emacs development...without getting left behind when I want to install a new package... oh well...
