Well, I’m pleased with #Zed, but you ain’t programming “at the speed of thought” yet.

Well, I’m pleased with #Zed, but you ain’t programming “at the speed of thought” yet.

After so many years of software development, small helps are what free your mind. #ZedEditor is not there yet.

After that comes performance. It’s known that @jetbrains usage of JVM is a resource hog.

If Zen can add the same QoL improvements with great performance, I’m in.

What QoL feature are missing, exactly?

darkghosthunter@mastodon.social · 2 pts · 2y (1 reply)

@BatmanAoD Many:

- Cloning+Editing a theme
- Separate UI / Editor theme
- Double tap CTRL/Shift/Alt/Super
- Docker/DevContainer integration
- Only system shell supported
- No compound tools run
- No Startup/Finish tool runs
- No run given test
- No Command Line Tools integration (composer/bunx/php/etc)
- No VCS pane integration
- No Automcomplete/Intellisense finetuning

That's is what I can remember. If they make the UI great, people will learn the commands with time.

Makes sense.

What do you mean by "compound tools"?

...as a side note, why do you put Mastodon tags in your posts and comments?

@qqq small QoL improvements. I should have phrased it better I guess.
