Fantastic! I used EMACS for 3 years, vi(m) for 22, Kakoune for 2, and Helix for the past 3, and Helix is by far the best. I think it benefits from having arrived just in time for TreeSitter and LSP to be mature, and learned a lot from vim and Kakoune.
I like that it's modal, consistent, and fast.
Some particularly exciting changes in this release:
- DAP integration
- New, more capable, file explorer (the old file explorer is pretty basic)
- command-mode expansions (
%{language}, and%sh{...})! - purported improvement in command expansion (hopefully pipe and exec expansions are better)
Glad to see it!
