Dev, audio engineer, metal fanatic, dad. I tweet about code, tech, and cool software I run into. Works at @zeddotdev.

[Zed @zeddotdev]

We open-sourced Zed in January 2024.

Since then, the repo has amassed over 84k ⭐s and receives more PRs than we can honestly keep up with.

The Community Champions program is how we recognize and track work from contributors we've come to know and enjoy working with.

Big diff go brrrrr

[Joseph Lyons @MyDeathMachine]

It's wild to think Nathan and I were chatting about Zed before the pandemic. Really puts into perspective the sheer amount of time and effort behind this tool.

[Joseph Lyons @MyDeathMachine]

@Smit_Chaudhary3 Thank you. ❤️

[Joseph Lyons @MyDeathMachine]

I can't believe I forgot to repost the single greatest milestone in Zed's history last week. This one is so special for us.

[Zed @zeddotdev]

We've shipped more than a thousand versions of Zed, but all of them began with zero. Today, that changes.

Introducing Zed for Business.

We’ve heard from hundreds of companies that want to roll Zed out to more developers but need features like admin controls.

Starting today, Zed for Business makes it easy to govern and administer Zed usage across your organization.

We're not here to chase the AI money, and we're not here to write sloppy code.

We're building the thing that comes after git. @conradirwin shares what we're doing and why: https://t.co/f05wwOKjwO

@tahayvr Oooh! Want to open a PR to add it to awesome? Might need a new category!

I covered some of my most-used lesser-known Zed features in the latest edition of Hidden Gems.
Check it out!

[Zed @zeddotdev]

Did you know Zed can chain multiple actions into one keybinding using `action::Sequence`?

Check out the latest edition of Hidden Gems for another batch of arcane Zed tips.

@timurkhakhalev @zeddotdev You will be able to. We have a working version of this that just needs some polish.

[Joseph Lyons @MyDeathMachine]

The fact banks still use ACH is insane. Transfers should be instant in 2026.

@yanewm Fantastic news. I believe I was a patreon at one time, happy to help fund when the new one is public.

[Joseph Lyons @MyDeathMachine]

@yanewm Has development on Marta ended? Love this tool, sad to think it might go away.
