What’s in the Windows build:

  • Native rendering: DirectX 11 + DirectWrite for crisp text and smooth frames.

  • WSL & SSH Remoting: Open folders from WSL (File → Open Remote → Add WSL Distro), or connect to Linux boxes over SSH.

  • Full extensions parity: Zed extensions work on Windows; no special steps, no caveats.

Use it, and tell them what to improve

The team is especially looking for feedback on WSL workflows, IME and keyboard layouts, multi-monitor setups, and 120–144 Hz displays.

All of Zed’s AI features, including edit predictions and ACP-powered agents, are fully supported on Windows, and in combination with WSL/SSH remoting. Leverage Claude Code directly in Zed through ACP, trial Zed Pro for free for 14 days, or bring your own keys.

I'm a paying zed user, it's pretty great. pretty tasteful design, performant, "just works".

Don't know anything about windows though, wouldn't touch that with a 200 foot pole :)

Nice! Does it support remote collaboration out of the box?
