Add a README.org to the Helm layer to fix `helm-spacemacs-help-layers` (`SPC h l`). There is little actual documentation -- it just links to the official docs as well as the Helm wiki and the Helm guide. Issue #8679

* Description
|
|
Spacemacs is powered by one of two incremental completion and selection
|
|
narrowing frameworks: [[https://github.com/emacs-helm/helm][Helm]] (this layer, which is the default) or Ivy.
|
|
|
|
These completion systems are the central control towers of Spacemacs, they are
|
|
used to manage buffers, projects, search results, configuration layers, toggles
|
|
and more...
|
|
|
|
Mastering your choice of completion system will make you a Spacemacs power user.
|
|
|
|
* Install
|
|
Helm is the default completion framework -- if Ivy is not enabled, Helm will be
|
|
enabled automatically.
|
|
|
|
To switch from Ivy to Helm, modify your =~/.spacemacs=. You will need to add
|
|
=helm= to the existing =dotspacemacs-configuration-layers= list in this file,
|
|
and remove =ivy=.
|
|
|
|
* Key bindings
|
