A related question, how have people found zed's new AI features? From my use a week or 2 ago, it seems they need more devs dogfooding on linux. Putting the OpenAI Api key in the configure tab did nothing. Starting with the environment variable worked around that.
- d4rkp4ttern 2y agoI am big fan. Its features are not immediately obvious, but it's a superpower to have. I'll mention just one - the ability to hit Ctl-Enter (MacOS) literally anywhere (in code editor, terminal, assistant pane) to get context-aware responses and code-diffs is super-useful. I did try cursor but I'm just not into that whole VSCode feel (I am a JetBrains person, and zed lets you set the keymap to JetBrains-style, so most of my kb shortcuts still work in zed). Zed is rust-based and extremely fast, and they are building it from the ground up instead of forking VScode like Cursor.
- huevosabio 2y agoI really like the editor, but the AI stuff clearly lags behind Cursor in quality and in ergonomics. I want them to catch up though because the editor is very, very snappy. I now use it intermittently with Cursor.
- vunderba 2y agoI like Zed and appreciate that I can bring my own keys for the AI features. The only thing I don't like is that inline auto-completion seems to be strictly tied to GitHub copilot. Even if you supply Anthropic / OpenAI keys, that only supports the context and assistant features.
