Whilst it's likely I'll never be as fast at editing code with a vim
like editor such as Helix compared to VSCode I think it could be a fun thing to learn.
The tutor
mode in Helix is solid and I've been able to setup a basic environment for doing anything TypeScript related using this config. I just had to edit my ~/.config/helix/languages.toml
file and install all the dependencies globally with npm
.
I can then run
hx --health typescript
to confirm everything is working.
Using Helix plus lazygit
is a really nice development environment especially for my own personal projects.
