A Kakoune / Neovim inspired editor, written in Rust.
The editing model is very heavily based on Kakoune; during development I found
myself agreeing with most of Kakoune's design decisions.
For more information, see the [website](https://helix-editor.com) or
[documentation](https://docs.helix-editor.com/).
All shortcuts/keymaps can be found [in the documentation on the website](https://docs.helix-editor.com/keymap.html).
[Troubleshooting](https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/wiki/Troubleshooting)
# Features
- Vim-like modal editing
- Multiple selections
- Built-in language server support
- Smart, incremental syntax highlighting and code editing via tree-sitter
It's a terminal-based editor first, but I'd like to explore a custom renderer
(similar to Emacs) in wgpu or skulpin.
Note: Only certain languages have indentation definitions at the moment. Check
`runtime/queries/<lang>/` for `indents.scm`.
