Zed is an open-source code editor for Linux, macOS, and Windows written using the Rust programming language. It was started by Nathan Sobo, one of the creators of Atom, and is developed by Zed Industries.[2][3] The editor itself is free to use, but users must pay to use some of the AI features.[4]
Zed's key features include real-time collaborative editing, artificial intelligence integrations, optional Vim key bindings and Git support. Zed also supports extensions.[3][5]
History
[edit]After Atom was discontinued in 2022, three key contributors created Zed, announcing it in 2023. In 2024 the project was open-sourced.[2][6]
In 2025, the project announced they had received $32 million in funding from Sequoia Capital.[7]
