+## File tree picker in Helix with Zellij {#helix-with-zellij}
+
+Yazi can be used as a file picker to browse and open file(s) in your current Helix instance (running in a Zellij session).
+
+Add a keymap to your Helix config, for example <kbd>'</kbd> + <kbd>y</kbd>:
+
+```toml
+# ~/.config/helix/config.toml
+[keys.normal."'"]
+y = ":sh zellij run --floating -n 'Yazi picker' -- bash ~/.config/helix/yazi-picker.sh"
+```
+
+Then save the following script as `~/.config/helix/yazi-picker.sh`:
+
+```sh
+#!/usr/bin/env bash
+paths=$(yazi --chooser-file=/dev/stdout | xargs -I {} command printf "%q " {})
+zellij action toggle-floating-panes
+zellij action write 27 # send <Escape> key
+zellij action write-chars ":open $paths"
+zellij action write 13 # send <Enter> key
+zellij action toggle-floating-panes
+zellij action close-pane
+```
+
+Note: this uses a floating window, but you should also be able to open a new pane to the side, or in place. Review the Zellij documentation for more info.

 While Yazi is already fast, there is still plenty of room for optimization for specific users or under certain conditions:
