I switched from using Vim as my primary editor to using Zed's Vim Mode. When you have a second process editing your project in the background you need an editor that can display those changes immediately without clunky buffer reloads.
I've also customized Zed's UI to optimize for reading and reviewing code, and mostly adding notes or small focused edits, rather than writing entire files from scratch.
- carlinm 3mo agoI’ve done the same. Curious, what changes have you made to optimize the reading and reviewing?
- throw2ih020 3mo agoMostly moved my panels around to emphasize navigating code and looking at diffs side by side. Less emphasis on terminals, task runners, debuggers, test suites, etc. - I can pop those out if I need them, but usually I have the agent run my CI suites as a pre-review step anyway.
