## Why not use Emacs Prelude?
Prelude is nice and all, but I don't need everything it does. I need a config
that does what I need without having to potentially counter and/or work against
some config framework. Hence I prefer rolling my own.
The way Prelude structures it's files and code however is very great, and
something I took to heart when I started working on a rewrite of my config, and
hence Emacs Siren was born.
## Why call my config Emacs-Siren?
I had been playing a lot of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, and decided to pick a name
based on a enemy type from the game. "Siren" was short and kinda cool sounding.
