Emacs, Anyone Using It For Website Development And Management?

I decided to share this because I am so happy to be part of this forum. The tool I use for efficiency and productivity for my day to day coding is Emacs. If you are not using emacs as a developer, you are missing out.
Emacs is the best and oldest and most relevant editor in the world. The reason is because it is universal. Emacs act like a chameleon. You can use it as an IDE for python, java, c, c++, ruby, lisp, arduino, pearl, php, javascript, swift etc instead of having multiple IDE for different programming language installed on your pc.
You do not have to install multiple IDE's on your pc. When you install Emacs, you have everything you need. I forget to mention that it is cross os compatibility. Works on GNU Linux, and all linux distros, works on Windows and Macs. You can also do some cool stuffs like task management, real email, use it for a web server, play, etags, auto-completion, dictionary, twitter client, chat on IRC, store passwords, produce slide using LaTex whch you can easily convert to Book or eBook and Journal just by changing document class. play chess, play teris, physiotherapist etc By the way, it is free. Free as in Freedom, Free as in Richard M Stallman, Free as in you can learn Lisp and modify emacs to create you text editor. Can you do all this with any code editor on this earth?
The only disadvantage is that you have to invest time to learn it.
It has a lot of great functionality and it is extensible. You can tweak it the way you want. It was developed using lisp. Lisp is an advance core programming language developed for artificial intelligence research at MIT. For any questions, feel free to contact me. Cheers.
Happy Weekend
