About

Zed is a next-generation code editor designed for high-performance collaboration with humans and AI.

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

- Integrate upcoming LLMs into your workflow to generate, transform, and analyze code.

- Chat with teammates, write notes together, and share your screen and project. All included.

- Zed now speaks WSL. You can open a Linux distro as a first-class “remote” target, edit projects that live inside it.

- All of Zed’s AI features, including edit predictions and ACP-powered agents, are fully supported on Windows.

- All Zed extensions now work seamlessly on Windows; no special steps, no caveats.

- To run on almost all Windows versions, including VMs, we created a new rendering backend based on DirectX 11.

Security

No known CVEs for Zed.

Coverage is best-effort and depends on a winget package mapping to an NVD CPE entry. Absence here is not a guarantee of safety.
