Zed Industries·ZedIndustries.Zed

High-performance, multiplayer code editor from the creators of Atom and Tree-sitter.

Zed is a next-generation code editor designed for high-performance collaboration with humans and AI. - Written from scratch in Rust to efficiently leverage multiple CPU cores and your GPU. - Integrate upcoming LLMs into your workflow to generate, transform, and analyze code. - Chat with teammates, write notes together, and share your screen and project. All included. - Zed now speaks WSL. You can open a Linux distro as a first-class “remote” target, edit projects that live inside it. - All of Zed’s AI features, including edit predictions and ACP-powered agents, are fully supported on Windows. - All Zed extensions now work seamlessly on Windows; no special steps, no caveats. - To run on almost all Windows versions, including VMs, we created a new rendering backend based on DirectX 11.
