+# Migrating from Emacs
+
+Helix is a modal editor stronly inspired by Vim and Kakoune. Users of doom Emacs
+will find it familiar. Helix follows the `selection → action` model. Where many Emacs
+commands can work with the item under point Helix will require a selection first.
+A cursor in Helix is simply a single width selection.
+
+Helix has buffers too. <space>-b will let you shift between them.
+
+Commands can be prefixed with numbers to change their behavior in much the same way
+as C-u N <command> does in Emacs.
+
+Registers in Helix work much like registers do in Emacs as well. Except there is
+currently no mark saving and moving. Check out the jumplist for an alternative.
+
+Many of the same behaviors from rectangle mark mode can be reproduced using multiple
+cursors.
