Review Zed?

Zed draws consistent praise for speed, responsiveness, and a clean, distraction‑free feel. Makers behind

DockFix

Almeta ML

, and

Zyng Ai

highlight snappy performance, polished autocomplete, and a smooth switch from VS Code, though some still lean on JetBrains for advanced features. Users applaud real‑time collaboration and solid AI integrations, noting it’s lightweight yet capable. Common trade‑offs: a smaller extension ecosystem and occasional rough edges, but momentum and frequent updates inspire confidence.

I didn't realize how fast editors could be until I tried Zed. The extensions are not quite as comprehensive as the VSCode family but still covers most of my use cases. Just from those 2 things I think its worth 5 stars. The AI integration for suggested edits and "vibe coding" i think is better than Copilot, but not quite as good as Cursor/Windsurf. I also like everything they are doing with Open source

Zed is fast, efficient, modern, and sleek. I love using Zed for developing many of my applications, regardless of the language, as it is so fast and clean, and its intelligent autocomplete feels superb. It's definitely one of the better editors out there. The only thing keeping me from using this as my only code editor is the powerful features of JetBrains editors.

I've used Zed for almost a year now. It's head and shoulders better than any other editor on the market as far as speed, responsiveness, and simplicity of UX. It's clear that the Zed team thought about the editor from first principles rather than tacking on a lot of random "features." I even write blog posts in Zed.
