Zed is a high-performance, multiplayer code editor from the creators of Atom, engineered in Rust for low-latency editing, instant search, and responsive UI on large repositories. Tree-sitter-powered parsing and a modern rendering pipeline deliver precise syntax intelligence without sacrificing speed.

Real-time collaboration is built in: start a session, invite teammates, and edit the same files together with presence, cursors, and chat—no heavy setup or brittle plugins required. Zed's AI assistant integrates chat and inline suggestions directly into the editor, scoped to your project to keep responses relevant and actionable.

Power users benefit from deep keyboard navigation, fast project-wide search, and a pragmatic extension surface that favors performance. Remote development and terminals are first-class, making Zed a compelling daily driver for individuals and teams that value speed and collaborative workflows.
