evil-helix: A super fast modal editor with Vim keybindings (github.com)

Some of you may have come across Helix - a very fast editor/IDE. Unfortunately, Helix has its own set of keybindings, modeled after Kakoune.

This was the one problem holding me back from using this excellent editor, so I soft-forked the peoject to add Vim keybindings. Now, two years later, I realize this might interest others as well, so here we go:

I‘d be happy to polish the fork - which I carefully keep up-to-date with Helix‘s master branch for now. So let me know what you think!

And yes, I‘m also looking for a more original name.

I may have been wrong about helix being the cause of my LSP issues. One large typescript project I have will have performance issues but it may just be that project. I just found the same issue in neovim. Vscode is the only editor that doesn’t seem to have any problem with it.

I was originally hoping it would be resolved by this PR https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/pull/10539
