I've started using Helix occasionally as I stumbled across the editor when trying to customize vim for Rust.

Immediately, I fell in love with how (mostly) plug and play Helix is.

Over the next few months, I plan to use Helix more and more. If you have any useful tips on usage, customization or anything else I am all ears.

I'm not using helix for a long time, but I can suggest you to just look at configuration docs and see what you would like to change. Most of defaults are very nice in helix, but sometimes you might want to add something.

EDIT: Also install LSPs, if you haven't already.
