Seems there are a couple of parts to this:
- You need a setup that will work across all of your OS/environments,
only loading things when appropriate. This is mostly just taking
care with what you use where/when. E.g. I only load my email bits
on my laptop.
- Keep your configuration in a VCS (e.g. git, perhaps on GitHub) and
keep the various clones of the repository in sync with pushes/pulls
as appropriate.
My config is a personalized version of sjrmannings' .emacs.d[1].
It's a really nice framework on which to hang things. I always smile
when a remember why I have files and things that start with `sm`....
straight.el[2], which sjrmannings' config uses, extends use-package a
bit and provides a wonderful amount of power for running
customized/fixed versions of packages.
