An extremely extensible text editor, there's jokes that it can do literally anything, you can play music, watch video, etc.
It's often at war with the cult of vi and the church of emacs.
You should really convert to helixism, the latest messianic update to the cult of vi.
I'm a vim and emacs user for some decades already. I had this urge one day to try and work with helix. It kind of misses some things such as file manager or editorconfig support. Nine months later I'm still using helix. It still misses these things, but I really started to like how I don't need any plugins to work with it and I need about five lines of configuration to have a usable editor. Probably going to continue using it.
And it is written in Rust, which is my main language and I can just jump in to the editor source and fix things if needed.
I miss magit and org from emacs a lot though. Every time I need to write an article, I do it in emacs.
It's probably this, for all of you whou didn't know Helix before, like me: https://helix-editor.com/
Don't forget us nanoites. The clearly superior text editor
nanoers just never figured out how to :wq
Use
:xyou pleb:x? Real Programmers useZZ.But what if you wanted to write even if there weren't changes?
Then you use
:wq
