my emacs config is init.el having

(require 'package)

(setq package-enable-at-startup nil)

(add-to-list 'package-archives '("melpa" . "https://melpa.org/packages/") t)

(package-initialize)

;; Bootstrap `use-package'

(unless (package-installed-p 'use-package)

(package-refresh-contents)

(package-install 'use-package))

(org-babel-load-file (expand-file-name "~/.emacs.d/myinit.org"))

then you can put your configs in an org file. using `use-package` means I can just copy/paste the file to new emacs and all my packages are auto installed etc..

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp

(use-package command-log-mode

   :ensure t)  

 #+END_SRC  

also, i highly recommend package `which-key` - it displays what commands are available along with their keypress.
