You're not missing out feature-wise, no. Helm is the original kitchen sink power tool on this front. The Vertico-stack is interesting for different reasons, like simplicity of implementation.
- cmrdporcupine 3y agoI have tried various things for completion, etc over the years, and found Helm just too 'deep' of a topic to dig into... but vertico is the first time any of these things just 'clicked' and it's improved my experience of emacs 10-fold.
- textread 3y agoFor me, helm kinda clicked after a careful reading of its author's blogpost at https://tuhdo.github.io/helm-intro.html https://tuhdo.github.io/helm-intro.html Somehow, I feel like, if I were to configure vertico etc to my liking, I might just end up recreating a ductaped version of helm.
