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.
As someone that never really clicked with Vim, but has been enjoying Helix, I’ve been looking for the opposite: something that makes Neovim follow the selection-action paradigm, along with all of the Helix keybindings.
I feel the same way. I’ve been using helix for about a month now and really like its paradigm. But I’m missing some of the neovim features. And I’ve run into some lsp issues that I don’t think are present in neovim
