#HelixEditor #geeky #dev #editor #golf

Helix Editor is about to get support for multiple simultaneous language servers, which should make web development with it so much nicer (especially when creating Small Web¹ places using Kitten²).

https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/pull/8086/files

The only thing that would make it better is if the inline diagnostics branch also got merged sometime soon because it’s sad to have to choose between one or the other.

#HelixEditor #web #dev

It would be great if #HelixEditor had something like ThePrimeagen harpoon plug-in. It has alternate file/buffer already so it would be great if that was extended to do at least 4 files/buffers. Harpoon is probably the one thing I'm missing the most from my neovim config

#helix

I installed #HelixEditor on my laptop today.

I've been contemplating learning NeoVim for a while now, but this seems very well done, and i would like to be able to do all my work from the terminal. The deb is kind of broken though, gonna have to make an issue.

NeoVim's cool but not my thing really. #HelixEditor sucks with its sometimes-buggy Treesitter/LSP integration, but I am really into that friendliness. And hacking configs in Lua is a pain---I'm merely a scriptkid!

#tera, #jinja2, #twig, and #liquid are all very similar template languages. #HelixEditor has support for twig, but not the others, so I set the language manually to get the others. I did a little digging and there is a #treesitter grammar for liquid and jinja2, but not tera. It seems to me like there should be a standard set up with a common grammar that can be extended by each so they aren't starting from scratch. Also shouldn't there be a common standard to those templating engines altogether?

Worked through 11 chapters of #helixeditor tutor. Some of it seems like magic. Just hope I remember some of those functions when in need. Amazing stuff and eager to ditch #neovim for it.

When you don't have time to find a girlfriend, but you have time to make a sexy theme for the code editor in the console. nonsense

In #Rust you can run rustfmt on save i guess.
Which languages are you using?

#HelixEditor #RustLang

Damn, Clippy is a learning resource for itself! 😍

Thanks to everyone that contribute to these awesome lints :blobcatheart:

If you are using #HelixEditor, you can just use `Space + a` to use the suggested code action :helix:
But you have configure Clippy as your rust-analyzer command:

I got #Helix running on my Chromebook, but the ChromeOS terminal doesn't support truecolor, so none of the themes work, which is a bummer.

I may try my hand at a custom theme, but that may still not work. We'll see.

#HelixEditor

Anyone using #HelixEditor on Debian? The PPA install instructions don't work because there isn't a Releases file from what I can tell.

I absolutely fell into the bucket of #HelixEditor. Even though I recently purchased the All Products Suite from Jetbrains from my private money, I can't get over how snappy something feels (especially concerning startup times) and and how efficient it is even though it gives features that border on the IDE side of things.
And that barely any setup work. I'm sold.

Shout out an #helixeditor !
Diese Woche damit #python programmiert. Macht Spaß, nur die Autocompletion hat manchmal ungewollte Effekte, die den Code ändern. Aber mit der "idle-timeout" Einstellung bekomme ich das glaub in den Griff.

So now that I have a couple days trying #HelixEditor, it is definitely a refreshing take on #modal based text editors. 😎

It can't replace everything I use #neovim for, but it's getting close. 😅

Anyone have a #helixeditor languages.toml file they can share? I can never seem to get my toml file LSP config set up correctly.

Taking some time to update #HelixEditor to the latest version and then trying out a workflow to add spellchecking to text files.

Been using #helixeditor as daily driver lately and am impressed 💪 Left wondering if #lapce and/or #zed could separate itself in the IDE game by using helix as its default modal editor 🤔

This weekend I spent a bit of time implementing a tree-sitter grammar for CSV. https://github.com/arnau/tree-sitter-csv

And realised how easy and ergonomic #helixEditor is with structural navigation and how limited #neovim feels.
