I love helix, it’s so easy to configure, sane defaults and it feels just right!

[–] lavafroth@programming.dev 6 points 1 year ago

Helix is genuinely a great editor. Even the AppImage picks up LSP servers present on the system. If it works good enough for you, awesome! Don't stop using it because someone sang praises of neovim.

I played around with it a little today, it's actually really nice, I still suck at vim, but the menu popups make me happy. Reminds me of micro a little.

I recently noticed that micro is getting more powerful. It seems to have some LSP support now.

Does this support extensions? Things like copilot and git diff plugins...?

[–] d_k_bo@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago

No, there isn't a plugin system. Things like LSP support are builtin and it uses external LSP server binaries that must be installed on your system.
