Three steps:
:config-open to open the global config toml filedisplay-inlay-hints in [editor.lsp] section[editor.lsp]
display-inlay-hints = true
:config-reload to make it into effect (or restart helix)That's it. Thanks, helix! It's a hard work. 
BTW I mainly use neovim, the basic inlay hints PR for neovim was merged last month and the functionality is promisingly on 0.10 roadmap.
Any idea how hard it would be to run helix on Chrome/wasm32 (assuming a virtual/fake file system is provided)? It'd be an amazing editor for a WebIDE.
Just tried compiling helix to wasm32-wasi which is likely the easiest path towards running it in the browser. I found the following issues:
--no-default-features disables git integration)which doesn't support wasm32-wasi.helix-lsp and helix-dap can't work in wasm32-wasi due to the lack of spawning processes.So far, I've twice managed to get multi-threaded Rust to run in Chrome/browser via webworker + postMessage (luckily both times they were just using channels and not actually sharing memory like Arc<Mutex<..>>).
Now idea how difficult the other tasks are. In your opinion, is this worth even trying or would I be better off looking for another editor-like that compiles to Chrome/wasm32 ?
I have no idea how much helix is tied to crossterm and especially tokio. You could try asking the helix devs about this, but otherwise I wouldn't recommend trying unless you have a fair bit of spare time.
