  1. It's not surprising that editors / IDEs supporting less features are going to be faster. For example, https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/5065 , according to that issue Zed doesn't support Build/Debug actions, which makes it a…
  2. …Zed right now to add in support for specifying a HTTP/HTTPS proxy to the copilot completion APIs: https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/24364 Branch is a bit out of date vs main now but it should work if you build off it. There are a…
  3. While you're here... https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/14203 Would be a massive win that's fairly narrow in scope. More generally, being able to send arbitrary LSP commands to the server and see the response, even if it's just a…
  4. …two completion providers available were supermaven [3] and copilot. You could mimic either. [1] https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/tree/be830742439f531e8... [2] https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/blob/master/examples/... [3]…

  9. …You can also sort the issues and see for yourself what the community thinks should be a priority: https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues?q=is%3Aissue%20... I think the takeaway here is not that everyone related to Zed thinks AI…
  10. It doesn't seem like the issue has been entirely ignored: https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/7992#issuecomme... Out of the 55,000 people who have starred the repo (and countless others who have downloaded Zed without starring the…
  11. …(not for AI, just to show text on the screen). I liked Zed so much I bought a new graphics card! https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/discussions/23623
  12. …hard to care about AI features when a year later I still can't even get acceptable font rendering: https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/7992

  14. I found https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/2f734cbd5e2452647... which leads me to believe the environment variable ZED_PREDICT_EDITS_URL does control the endpoint.
  15. They use backend configurable at environment variable ZED_PREDICT_EDITS_URL https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/2f734cbd5e2452647... , but I don't know if the /predict_edits/v2 endpoint is something some projects provide or not. At…
  16. …you had this experience with Zed. We've seen a few reports of issues with our python integration ( https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/23170 , https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/22426 ), and we'll be taking a look at…

  21. Just last week some hero claimed to be adding helix keybindings to zed ( https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/4642#issuecomme... ). Golly I hope they succeed.

  28. Wow it still doesn't support debugging it seems. https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/5065 People who use Zed now at work, sorry but you still print variables to debug issues? In 2024? Zed is investing in features to satisfy…

  35. For that to be the case you’d need two posts: Zed is apparently following the same convention: https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/16969 It’s a tiresome exercise to enumerate all of the ways in which Apple is eating the seed corn…
  36. …result in me feeling comfortable spending time adopting this editor. I'm "scared" that issues like https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/6843 might be very low on the list of work being done and always will be, while the next big…

  45. Zed is written in Rust: https://github.com/zed-industries/zed . It seems relatively straightforward to write an extension for it, but I've never personally tried (I suck at Rust). I will say that Lua is extremely easy to pick up, and as…
