Fast and easily customizable. I've been searching for VSCodium alternatives for years because it was my only remaining Microsoft product in use. Never found one that came close to its remarkably convenient shortcuts / key mappings until I stumbled upon Zed. It doesn't support all the shortcuts yet, but the few that it doesn't I easily replaced with simple AutoKey scripts, i.e.,"Emmet: wrap with abbreviation" [to simply wrap with a HTML tag], or commenting a selection.

I have no idea how many stars to give as I'm eagerly awaiting the release of the Windows version. Nevertheless, it has the potential of being a drop-in replacement for Sublime Text or VSCode/ium as it is extensible and has support for different coding environments (running Python code, command line tools, etc). It also has the added benefit of being open source.

Very promising code editor, I'm waiting for the Linux version to come out!

It's blazing fast, good-looking, has great Github Copilot integration, and collaborative editing features.

I love Zed Editor, it's like a gulp of fresh air after years of dealing with clunky IDEs and Electron-based editors.
