;;; Commentary:
;; The minimal-emacs.d project is a customizable base that provides better Emacs
;; defaults and optimized startup, intended to serve as a solid foundation for
;; your vanilla Emacs configuration.

;;; Code:

;;; Load pre-init.el

  ;; Install use-package if necessary
  (unless (package-installed-p 'use-package)
    (package-install 'use-package))

  ;; Ensure use-package is available at compile time
  (eval-when-compile

;; Ensure the 'use-package' package is installed and loaded
