Zed on Linux is out!
You must log in or register to comment.
It’s not really an alternative yet, it’s in alpha versions…
But I think it will be great in a year.
No git tab still. Vscode > Zed for now.
Why is zed so popular? What am I missing? Looks like just any other editor…
It’s really fast, has nice vim keybindings and has the potential to be a great open source VSCode alternative.
I don’t use it yet since it doesn’t have a built in Python debugger but I’ve been watching it closely. I really want to switch to it someday soon
VSCode (or the base app used by it) is open source (see: VSCodium). It has a similar relationship to Chrome and its base Chromium, where assets and tweaks are added to brand the product. You may have been trying to say “a great open source, VSCode alternative” and I misunderstood. Just commenting to remove ambiguity.
I’m on the Neovim train and I’m not getting off at this junction.
But more high quality choices is a good thing.
built from the ground up in Rust with a GPU-accelerated renderer
I don’t want GPU-accelerated rendering, I want a renderer that has a solid 5 second lag, to make it look to anyone around like I type faster than 20 wpm.
Zed is dead.
Am not!
But… Marcellus Wallace went full medieval on your ass?
That was all just good fun
So pulsar for the win
Dunno, never been a fan of Atom.
I use and keep kicking my work colleagues with the fact pulsar seems much better at being an IDE
Every time I try a vim alternative, I get frustrated and just end up back with vim.
