A better out of the box experience-- fewer plugins required. More discussion here: https://urbanists.social/@markstos/112586854536602496

Cool, but is it possible to add vim bindings to Helix? I'm too used to them, I even use them in Emacs.

[-] markstos@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

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: https://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.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
