I don’t think merging “features” into Guix has been discussed before.
It does sound like a logical next step to declarative configuration, but
I don’t have any experience to really say.

Anyway, I think the first step for Emacs configuration with Home is a
‘home-emacs-service-type’, possibly based on/inspired by the one in rde
that Andrew mentions.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
