- _aavaa_ 3y agoLast I checked it's still missing language server and integrated debugger support. That and being macOS only, seem like major roadblockers to major adoption.

- _aavaa_ 3y agoI don’t think that’s the right lesson here. And yet, they all then seem to do a whole bunch of work that is specific to each platform anyway. Further, if Zed was an electron app nobody would be talking about it. Electron’s great if you want to be the first on the market, and for many of them competition never arrives.
