        I mean it does support LSP, natively, I found that ultimately that’s all the plugins I really need. It working out of the box and not requiring megabytes of configuration files is one of its great strengths.

        If all you need is some customisation it’s perfectly possible to write custom commands that execute sequences of commands. Including calling out to the shell and piping to and from external programs. Strictly static sequences though unlike the abomination that is vimscript they’re not making keybindings a scripting language…

      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.

        Indeed. Make sure to start it with hx --tutor the first time around so you know how to quit :)

        And no matter what you do when giving it a try do it in a time and place where you can go at least a week without vi as the command grammar is close yet different enough to completely confuse your muscle memory, you don’t want to mix them up (helix uses a strict selection-action command set so you get ‘wd’ instead of ‘dw’ and stuff).
