      Sell me on Helix real quick. I’ve heard about it and it looks interesting but I’m not sure what the hook is.

        I came from vscode and nano. I wanted something within the terminal as powerful as vscode. I tried doom emacs and vim but they didn’t feel right.

        Reasons I use it:

        • I found it easier to learn than vim/emacs in my opinion
        • Written in rust
        • Pretty easy to get language servers running
        • config is super easy
