fresco.hx

Fresco keeps Helix up to date when files or Git history change outside the editor.

• Commit from another terminal and stale diff markers disappear.
• Let formatters, generators, or other tools rewrite files and clean buffers reload automatically.
• Keep editing safely: Fresco never reloads a buffer with unsaved changes.

No more manual reloads after routine external changes.

Configure Helix
