My only concern right now with Emacs is web develoopment.
Html tags just don't get completed automatically and ther is no auto 
completion triggering as I type.
I have to press a keystroke every time I type some thing and get the 
auto completion done using company-web-html for all that work.
But programming in Python with Emacs is bliss.
Happy hacking.
