Collaborative Note Editor

Thanks to a work-in-progress Homebrew cask by Andi Péter (<https://codeberg.org/GramEditor/gram/issues/15#issuecomment-11159294>), I was just able to quickly install and play with the new Gram code editor (<https://codeberg.org/GramEditor/gram#gram>) – a fork of Zed with all the bullshit (AI, telemetry, etc.) removed that looks like it could be great editor to recommend both for people just learning to code (as I was, recently, to recommend for people learning Kitten¹) as well as seasoned programmers who don’t want to work in terminal.

And, as a bonus, it actually has a Helix Editor mode so if that’s your daily driver (raises hand), you can just use it like Helix (i.e., Helix Editor in a graphical shell).

If you want to try Andi’s build (only works on Mac at the moment and remember, you have to trust Andi):

brew tap petrosz007/gram-tap <https://codeberg.org/Petrosz007/homebrew-gram-tap.git>
brew install --cask gram

PS. You can follow the author of Gram, [@krig](https://goto.liten.app/@krig), on the fediverse :)

Edit web browser text areas in Helix!

GhostText is a browser extension that lets you edit textarea content in your favorite editor instead of in the browser. This is good if, for example, you like the way your editor highlights and lints your code. Or maybe you like the way your editor spellchecks your markdown. I just like the simplicity of Helix and look for more places to use it, in general.

There are GhostText clients for lots of editors out there, but there wasn't one for Helix. So I made this one. Since Helix doesn't have a plug-in system, scripting, etc., this was a little tricky. And the result is more basic than some of the other, more complex editor plug-ins for GhostText. This tracks with how Helix's simplicity demands that you think simpler, which is the main thing I like about it. Because this client was designed to be simple, it should work equally well with other editors (vim, nano, micro, whatever).
