+#+TITLE: Emacs Init File
+#+AUTHOR: Daniel Ziltener
+
+* Initialization
+
+** Requirements
+
+Since I am using ~cl-defun~ in this init file, I need to import ~cl-macs~.
+
+#+begin_src emacs-lisp
+  (require 'cl-macs)
+#+end_src
+
+** Personal Information
+
+#+NAME: pers-info-table
+| Name            | Mail                |
+|-----------------+---------------------|
+| Daniel Ziltener | dziltener@lyrion.ch |
+
+#+begin_src emacs-lisp :var input=pers-info-table
+  (let ((row (car input)))
+    (setq user-full-name (cl-first row))
+    (setq user-mail-address (cl-second row)))
+#+end_src
+
+For storage of passwords, I use [[https://www.passwordstore.org/][pass]]: src_emacs-lisp[]{(auth-source-pass-enable)}
+
+** Customizations
+
+Since this init file is version controlled, and I set all customizations
+myself in =use-package= blocks, I want Emacs to use a separate file
+for authorized =.dir-local= variables and similar stuff.
+
+#+begin_src emacs-lisp
+  (setq custom-file "~/.emacs.d/custom.el")
+  (when (file-exists-p custom-file)
+    (load custom-file))
+#+end_src
+
+** Package Manager
+
+I use =straight.el= as package manager.
+
+#+NAME: straight-settings
+| Setting                 | Value |
+|-------------------------+-------|
+| Use Straight as default | f     |
+
+#+begin_src emacs-lisp :var tbl=straight-settings
+    (defvar bootstrap-version)
+    (let ((bootstrap-file
+           (expand-file-name "straight/repos/straight.el/bootstrap.el" user-emacs-directory))
+          (bootstrap-version 6))
+      (unless (file-exists-p bootstrap-file)
+        (with-current-buffer
+            (url-retrieve-synchronously
+             "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/radian-software/straight.el/develop/install.el"
+             'silent 'inhibit-cookies)
+          (goto-char (point-max))
+          (eval-print-last-sexp)))
+      (load bootstrap-file nil 'nomessage))
+
+    (let ((settings (car tbl)))
+        (setq straight-use-package-by-default
+              (string= "t" (cl-first settings))))
+#+end_src
+
+* Helper Functions
+
+Those are meant to reduce code duplication, and add some basic useful features.
+The first one is a function to create conditional keybindings.
+
+#+BEGIN_SRC  emacs-lisp
+  (cl-defun conditional-keybind
+      "Creates a keybinding that checks `filter-fn`.  If it succeeds,
+  `target-fn` is run, otherwise `fail-fn`. If no fail-fn is given,
+  `self-insert-command` is run instead.
+  `target-fn` and `fail-fn` must both be interactive."
+    (lambda (_prefix)
+      (interactive "P")
+      (if (funcall filter-fn)
+          (call-interactively target-fn)
+        (call-interactively fail-fn))))
+#+end_src
+
+* Core Emacs Customization                                        :important:
