evil-helix: A super fast modal editor with Vim keybindings
An experimental fork to bring the Helix editor to the evil side - usagi-flow/evil-helix
Some of you may have come across Helix - a very fast editor/IDE. Unfortunately, Helix has its own set of keybindings, modeled after Kakoune.
This was the one problem holding me back from using this excellent editor, so I soft-forked the peoject to add Vim keybindings. Now, two years later, I realize this might interest others as well, so here we go:
https://github.com/usagi-flow/evil-helix
I‘d be happy to polish the fork - which I carefully keep up-to-date with Helix‘s master branch for now. So let me know what you think!
And yes, I‘m also looking for a more original name.
You're viewing a single thread.
Helix + vim => Helim => Helium?
Vim + helix => velix / vimix / vix / velimix?
Hmm, helium would‘ve been amazing, but that‘d be an SEO nightmare. My wife told me „velimix“ sounds like a kitchen appliance. Not sure if that’s a good thing haha…
I feel like helium works as well as helix. When I search Helix I don't get the editor but if I search Helix Editor I will get what I'm looking for.
When I search Helium editor I don't get any exact matches, but of course SEO is a dark and mystical art so your mileage may vary.
I would suggest Helvix or Helvim
