The @code{use-package} macro allows you to set up package
customization in your init file in a declarative way. It takes care
of many things for you that would otherwise require a lot of
repetitive boilerplate code. It can help with common customization,
such as binding keys, setting up hooks, customizing user options and
faces, autoloading, and more. It also helps you keep Emacs startup
fast, even when you use many (even hundreds) of packages.

Note that use-package is not a package manager. Although use-package
does have the useful capability to interface with the Emacs package
manager, its primary purpose is help with the configuration and
loading of packages, not with managing their download, upgrades, and
installation.

convenient integration with Emacs's built-in package manager, its
