Indeed. Make sure to start it with hx --tutor the first time around so you know how to quit :)

And no matter what you do when giving it a try do it in a time and place where you can go at least a week without vi as the command grammar is close yet different enough to completely confuse your muscle memory, you don't want to mix them up (helix uses a strict selection-action command set so you get 'wd' instead of 'dw' and stuff).
