Getting Evil (aka Vim keys) in Emacs without Doom Emacs

Gavin Freeborn explains how to configure Vim-style keybindings in vanilla Emacs using Evil mode without relying on pre-configured distributions.

This tutorial is focused on getting Vim style keys in Emacs without having to install Doom Emacs. With the rise in Emacs distros I have seen a rise in reliance on them to avoid learning Emacs. While I am all for people using what works for them I wanted to make a video to help those who want to learn vanilla Emacs while still keeping Vim keys everywhere.
