-I have been searching for a lightweight code editor for quite some time. One of the main reasons was that I wanted something that doesn't burn through CPU and RAM usage is not through the roof. I have been mostly using Visual Studio Code. It's been an outstanding editor. I have no quarrel with it at all. It's just time to spice life up with something new.

-I have been on this search for a couple of years. I have tried Vim, Neovim, Emacs, Doom Emacs, Micro and couple more. Among most of them, I liked Micro and Doom Emacs the most. Micro editor was a little too basic for me. And Doom Emacs was a bit too hardcore. This does not reflect on any of the editors. It's just my personal preference.

-> I tried Helix Editor about a year ago. But I didn't pay attention to it. Tried it and saw it's similar to Vi and just said no. I was premature to dismiss it.

-One of the things I actually miss is line wrapping for certain files. When writing Markdown, line wrapping would be very helpful. Editing such a document is frustrating to say the least. Some of the Markdown to HTML converters don't take kindly of new lines between sentences. Not paragraphs, sentences. And I use Markdown to write this blog you are reading.

-But other than this, I have been extremely satisfied by it. It's been a pleasant surprise. There have been zero issues with the editor.

-One thing to do before you are able to use autocompletion and make use Language Server support is to install the language server with NPM.

-I am still getting used to the keyboard shortcuts and getting better. What Helix does really well is packing in sane defaults and even though because currently there is no plugin support I haven't found any need for them. It has all that you would need. It goes to extreme measures to show a user what is going on with popups that show you what the keyboard shortcuts are.

-It's still young but has this mature feeling to it. It has sane defaults and mimics Vim (works a bit differently, but the overall idea is similar).
