### Optimization: Native Compilation
Native compilation enhances Emacs performance by converting Elisp code into native machine code, resulting in faster execution and improved responsiveness.
1. To check if native compilation is enabled, evaluate `(native-comp-available-p)` in Emacs. A non-nil result indicates that native compilation is active.
2. Ensure all libraries are byte-compiled and native-compiled using [compile-angel.el](https://github.com/jamescherti/compile-angel.el). To install compile-angel, add the following code at the very beginning of your `~/.emacs.d/post-init.el` file, before all other packages:
```emacs-lisp
(use-package compile-angel
:ensure t
:demand t
:config
;; Set `compile-angel-verbose` to nil to suppress output from compile-angel.
;; Drawback: The minibuffer will not display compile-angel's actions.
(setq compile-angel-verbose t)
;; A local mode that compiles .el files whenever the user saves them.
;; (add-hook 'emacs-lisp-mode-hook #'compile-angel-on-save-local-mode)
;; A global mode that compiles .el files before they are loaded.

Corfu enhances in-buffer completion by displaying a compact popup with current candidates, positioned either below or above the point. Candidates can be selected by navigating up or down.
