Nathan Sobo recently open-sourced Zed, a code editor that focuses on performance, integrates AI capabilities, and supports software teams’ collaboration out of the box. For performance, Zed leverages a Rust code base, multicore- and GPU-optimized code, with a custom Rust GUI framework. For collaboration, Zed relies on CRDTs and team channels. Zed is currently Mac only.

      Yup. Especially since it’s written in Rust… Like why? Rust has a great cross-platform story.

      I guess if you are committed to supporting a hard to support platform, may as well get it out of the way first?

      But yeah, seems like a pretty poor release.
