Zed

What it is

Zed rethinks the editor for the AI era without sacrificing speed: startup and typing feel instant, multiplayer editing is native, and its Agent Panel runs coding agents (Claude and others, or your API keys) that edit across files with full visibility. Open source and increasingly the choice of performance-obsessed developers.
