Helix-Vim is a Vim-inspired keymap configuration for the Helix text editor. It is aimed at Vim and Neovim users who prefer Helix’s built-in language tooling but want familiar editing muscle memory. The configuration changes Helix key bindings without adding a plugin layer or external runtime. Common motions and commands such as 0, $, ^, G, {}, %, and several uppercase operations are mapped to Vim-like behavior. Some workflows still differ because Helix is built around selection-first editing rather than Vim’s verb-first model. The repository contains a compact config.toml that users can copy, fork, and customize for their own setup.
