Zed
Your last next editor
Zed is a high-performance code editor built from scratch in Rust, designed for speed and AI-assisted collaboration. It supports multiplayer coding, remote development, Vim/Helix modal editing, and integrates with any AI model for agentic workflows. Created by the team behind Atom and Tree-sitter, it offers a rich extensions ecosystem and works across local and remote environments.
Zed is written in Rust to leverage multi-core CPUs and the GPU for low latency, while providing built-in AI agent integration, real-time collaboration, and a growing extensions ecosystem.
