## Pinning packages
By default, Prelude will install packages from the MELPA and GNU ELPA package
repositories. Occasionally package integration can break when upgrading packages,
as the packages in the MELPA repository are all snapshot builds.
This can be avoided by pinning packages to stable versions in other repositories (e.g. MELPA Stable).
To do so, copy `prelude-pinned-packages.el` from the sample directory to
Prelude's root directory and adjust the [variables](https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Package-Installation.html)

## Enabling additional modules
By default most of the modules that ship with Prelude are not loaded. For more information on the functionality provided by these modules visit the [docs](modules/index.md).

## Uninstalling Prelude
Provided you've installed Prelude in `.emacs.d`, all you need to do is delete that folder.
If you opted for the manual installation and making `.emacs.d` a symlink - you remove/update
the link. Yeah, it's as simple as that. No fancy uninstaller required!
