Once you do this, you have access to many helm commands from `C-x c'
prefix, you can rebind these to some more convenient keys 
e.g. C-x c C-x C-f To C-x C-f etc..., then you can start helm-mode.
Once this is done try Helm and configure it to your taste along the way,
you have access to variables related to the running source with C-h c
while helm session.
See https://github.com/emacs-helm/helm/wiki#if-installed-from-source
and https://github.com/thierryvolpiatto/emacs-config/blob/main/init-helm.el  

Hope that help.
