The project home page.

The Github

Looks just like VS Code and I think it’s still built on electron so take that as you will.

Give zed.dev a try. I’ve been using it over vscode more and more. Lots faster too

Although no official release is available yet, Linux is buildable from source…

From what I see on github, there are major issues for Linux.

I am already fighting poorly designed vendor tools, adding one more unstable software in my workflow is just more frustrations.

Thanks. I remember one of these had people being excited about it and I felt bad that I couldn’t try it. But Linux is hard and we are all so grumpy. I get it.

You can compile it yourself to run it on Linux. You will need to install some dependencies and there are still some issues. For example; my monitors kept disconnecting when the application was open.
