Sure, but that convenience will come to bite you later. What happens when you want to update it? Their full install docs is like 5 lines of code so it is much preferred to do it that way. Every distribution is different. The ideal install here would be to add a unique apt repo for zed and then it becomes part of my normal update process. Updating a binary in a directory is not the end of the world... but I would prefer to know that upfront versus needing to hunt down where it was placed in order to do the updates. edit its 4 lines. seeing this is much preferred to parsing a bash script that is intended to support all distributions: wget https://zed.dev/api/releases/stable/latest/zed-linux-x86_64.tar.gz mkdir -p ~/.local tar -xvf zed-linux-x86_64.tar.gz -C ~/.local ln -sf ~/.local/bin/zed ~/.local/zed.app/bin/zed
