Lots of vim/emacs mentions so I feel obliged to mention Helix (https://helix-editor.com/). Used neovim for _years_, tried Helix for a few weeks and never looked back

I love helix, I just wish more editors had support for its bindings so I'm not as out of water when I have to use an IDE.

Strongly agree. There's a new page on the site about helix-mode in other editors (although there are a limited number of entries): https://docs.helix-editor.com/master/other-software.html

I myself have built zsh bindings for helix as that was my main pain point: https://github.com/john-h-k/helix-zsh

Really interested. Can you recommend a good tutorial, I tried searching but could not find anything which looked promising.

Try the helix tutor itself. Install, then do `hx --tutor` (binary is also called helix rather than hx on a few package managers).

And Kakoune, if you're looking for something you can easily extend yourself.

helix is so excellent.
