Helix editor

These are just some notes for using the Helix editor.

Specifically, things I used to do in VSCode, and how to do them in Helix.

Helix commands added in ()

Quickly browse and open files in my project directory (Space+f)

Switch between open files quickly (space+b)

Search for the definition of a function (g+d, but make sure the right LSPs are installed)

Search for usages of a function (g+r, again, make sure LSPs are installed)

Syntax highlighting (supported by default, use hx --health from CLI to see installed LSPs)

Multiple cursors ("miw" to select the current word, then "*" to select occurrences, and then "n" for next occurrence...)

Quick search and browse through results ("s" to search)

Format files according to editorconfig (supported by default)

See a minimap of the current open file for quick browsing (no support for minimaps)

Tab auto-complete (automatic with LSPs)

Create new file quickly (can use :sh touch for this)
