I explain my setup, configuration with Org-babel and packages I have at the moment. It's a simple, but flexible starting point for beginners, I think.

• My config as of Aug 3, 2018 when this episode aired
• My current config
• Aquamacs, macOS-specific Emacs build
• Emacs For Mac OS X, pure Emacs, no nonsense
• The Emacs Initialization File, like .emacs or .emacs.d/init.el
• Lars Tveito's config
• Harry R. Schwartz's config. Harry's talk about org-mode is excellent, by the way.
• melpa - Milkypostman’s Emacs Lisp Package Archive
