markstosAnyone care to compare this with Helix?
Why Helix over (neo)Vim?
A better out of the box experience-- fewer plugins required. More discussion here:

@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] I previously posted an analysis of my Neovim plugins. I had 34 and all but about 4 were replaced by the out of the box #HelixEditor functionality. It’s not that I want extreme or exotic configuration, but that expectations have been raised for what’s considered basic functionality. Fuzzy finders, LSP language enabled, git integration all seem like things that shouldn’t require plugins now.
Cool, but is it possible to add vim bindings to Helix? I’m too used to them, I even use them in Emacs.
A lot of the bindings are the same, because Helix was inspired in part by Vim.
Helix overall tries to make more consistent vocabulary and “nouns” and “verbs” in the keybindings, so there are some breaking changes.
Someone published a more “vim-like” set of keybindings for Helix: github.com/LGUG2Z/helix-vim
I started with that and then have slowly disabled a number of them as I come to appreciate the Helix defaults, and have realized that some of these vim-bindings are overriding other Helix bindings that I wanted.
