Zed is a minimal code editor crafted for speed and collaboration with humans and AI.

Fast

Written from scratch in Rust to efficiently leverage multiple CPU cores and your GPU.

Agentic

Run agents in parallel to smoothly edit files, navigate code, and run tools at native speed.

Collaborative

Chat with teammates, code together, and share your screen and project.

Trusted by world-class developers & industry leading teams

Yes! Now I can have shortcuts to run and debug tests. Ever since snippets were added, Zed has all of the features I could ask for in an editor.

José Valim

Creator of Elixir

I've had my mind blown using Zed with Claude 3.5 Sonnet. I wrote up a few sentences around a research idea and Claude 3.5 Sonnet delivered a first pass in seconds. When I spotted some small mistakes, I highlighted the parts I wanted to change and shared feedback for it to fix. I was able to go from idea to running experiment code in half an hour—it was really easy and fun.

This is obviously a product built with love and care. I can tell it from two minutes of using it. Kudos to the team.

My god it is so fast. Boot time, UI interaction, typing latency. I feel it. I knew VS Code always felt sluggish, but I didn't realize how good things could really be. I'm honestly astounded.

Matt Baker

Principal Engineer

I’ve started using Zed, and I love it. Lots of subtle innovations (multibuffers, inlay hints, collaboration). Thoughtful, precise design. And the speed, the speed!

Zed Just Works

Incredibly powerful out of the box. And it only gets better as, every week, there's always a new version.

Remote Development

Your machine only runs the Zed UI, while the actual codebase runs on a remote server.

Multibuffer editing

Multibuffers compose excerpts from across the codebase in one editable surface.

Vim-friendly

First-class modal editing via Vim bindings, including features like text objects and marks.

AI that works the way you code

Zed doesn't lock you into one model, it gives you the fastest way to collaborate with any agent.
