Episode notes

Exploring the benefits of Z search over Sublime Text, including the ability to edit buffers within search results and the potential of multi-cursor for tasks like fixing compile errors. Discussions on improving user experience, making multi-buffers more intuitive, and priorities for feature requests and bug reports.

The Zed text editor has come a long way since Nathan Sobo came on the show last year to tell us about this follow-up to Atom. Zed is open source now, has the underpinnings of collaboration built in, is beginning its journey toward full extensibility, is coming to Linux soon & shows serious promise if Nathan’s team can mix their secret sauce just right.
