[RESOLVED ]
thanks u/Kashasaurus and u/zithir - this comes as given bonus once you get Delta download link.
I've got VIP status in zed but never paid for anything there. The only thing was that I recently applied for DeltaDB testing and got approved. Is that related to new VIP status? What does this VIP even mean?
Thanks
I have tried like 50 times by now. I mainly use nvim, sometimes vscode when things are really not doable in nvim, and intellij for all things java though i rarely write write java. Time and again I keep coming to give Zed a try and see if I can make it my main editor, but it just never happens.
I don't like the git panel (vsc source control is much much better), vim support is awful, and a lot of things just look half baked.
For example, I looked up how to make file diff open when clicking in the git panel (project diff is what they give as the default), it works but it opens as if you edited the file (as opposed to when you just click once and it opens in such a way that clicking on another file replaces that file in the same tab).
As the title suggests, is there a way to disable the suggestCanonicalClasses warning for Tailwind.
For instance, I've always written !important as !class, not class!. I honestly don't agree with (or understand) why they have changed this and/or whatever benefits would come from the latter.
I'm trying out Zed right now after coming from VS Code. I work a lot with devcontainers on a remote machine, and I've read that DevPod can be used to make this setup work with Zed.
For those of you using Zed + DevPod for remote development: how has your experience been so far? How well does it work in practice, and was it worth the initial setup time?
At the moment, I'm still using VS Code for remote devcontainers. For other projects, I've been using Zed and really love it, so if getting remote devcontainers working is reasonably straightforward, I'd probably switch to Zed completely.
Would love to hear your experiences!

Wanted background art in my editor the way some VS Code/Neovim setups have it, so I built it directly into GPUI rather than as a plugin.
What's added:
Editor wallpapers — static PNG/JPG or animated GIF, drawn during the paint phase with cache eviction on theme switch so memory doesn't grow the longer a session runs
Window transparency with compositor blur
A visual theme browser (grouped by wallpaper, with previews) instead of a flat list of a hundred names
113 themes (90 dark / 23 light), colors and most wallpaper art from doki-theme (MIT), a handful hand-assembled myself
Repo + prebuilt binaries for Linux, Windows, and macOS: https://github.com/Unkno394/zed/releases/tag/v0.3.2-aura
Source: https://github.com/Unkno394/zed
Details regarding wallpaper rendering (on-the-fly drawing vs. pre-rendered images, memory usage)—for those interested in GPUI's internal mechanisms—as well as separate screenshots and GIFs of the wallpapers, can be found in the README file
I configured like the picture and then pressed Predict edit at cursor but nothing happens. There isn't anything in zed: open log either.
I'm using https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/openai/ The aistudio key works for the code agent part.
It's just me that feel DeltaDB somehow like jujutsu VCS? If it's different or have another feature, what's feature gonna be in that DeltaDB?
I work in data science and I do a lot of interactive work in Pyhton and R. In vscode I open python or r in the terminal and run chunks of the script by selecting a line or a variable and then doing shift+enter (might be some keybinding that I customised, I don't remember).
Is there a way in Zed to send a selected text or multiple lines to the terminal and execute it in one go?
Hey everyone 👋
Over the last year, as promised, we’ve been hard at work on DeltaDB. As we built it, we created a new app so the two could evolve together, quickly and without disrupting the workflows Zed users rely on. We loved using it, so we kept iterating.
Today, we’re ready to introduce that app: Delta, a multiplayer environment for coding with agents and reviewing what they build.
Delta keeps code and conversations connected, giving developers, teammates, and agents the full context of how the code came to be.
Our push to get Delta ready for beta is why Zed’s release notes may have seemed thinner lately, but Zed isn’t going anywhere. We’ll continue improving it, and DeltaDB will come to Zed in the future.
We’ve been using Delta extensively, building Delta from Delta, and we’re excited for you to finally try it and share your feedback. The first invites are going out today, with more to come over the next few weeks.
How do you guys make sure your TS code looks like in the right panel, not like in the goddamn left one?
Thx!!
Is there a way to do a git merge in Zed? If there is, is there conflict resolution? I saw a conflict resolution section in the docs, but there is no mention of how to do a merge.
I use these bottom bar buttons often enough that they shouldn't be so small:
At lease, there should be a setting to increase those.
Howdy. I'm new to using AI tools for coding, but an experienced developer. I keep finding that the Zed agent will respond to simple things like "I added a constant to some class" and run off and make its own implementation details up and just change files. I'm clearly using the "Write" profile. I could use "Ask" but I'd like to get it to use tools just... ask me first. I've worked on some system prompts and thought I added it into my settings.json correctly but it just keeps on assuming I am vibe coding and just want it to run off and do whatever it wants. Which I do not.
Anyone out there got any ideas how to calm down my agent successfully?
TIA
update: apparently i'm gonna be adding an AGENTS.md
I’m in data science and a lot of what I do involves using HTML to present visualizations of my data. I like it cause I can make buttons and stuff for customers to view the data. Sadly, this is the one step in my pipeline where I have to rely on vs.
I find the idea of the multibuffer terrible from a usability point of view.
In case you like it and use it, could you please give me some tips on how to work productively with it?
As an example "find references" opens in the multibuffer and this view makes it impossible to see things in a meaningful context.
Search and replace shows the results in the multibuffer instead of a list view like VSCode.
The program is overall okay, so I guess I am missing something important. Thanks in advance for any help.
PS I am not missing something, how did they come up with – to my knowledge – worst usability failure I have ever seen?
Is there a hotkey or a way to custom keymap.json to move keyboard focus directly out of the text input area (Section B) and into the chat output history (Section A) quickly?
In the picture, you can see that normally i am typing in the B section, and in order to move to my previous message in the A section, i need to manually click on section A to shift focus on "Agent Panel" in order to press any keymap hotkey i set (e.g., scroll output to my previous request to see the totality of my request).
I want a setup where i can press it, then i can switch from section B to section A right away so i dont have to reach for my mouse, which is the only way i can do right now. I have tried reading the actual command i have around agent:: , and i have used Gemini for 1.5hrs and it just doesnt work. Please help.
Thank you so much.

Edit: Solved. I cannot change focus from B to A and back, but i can bypass it by adding `> Editor` to keymap.json and move Agent Panel from the Text Input Area without focusing on the Agent Panel:
Old:
{
"context": "AgentPanel",
"bindings": {
"alt-up": "agent::ScrollOutputToPreviousMessage",
"alt-down": "agent::ScrollOutputToNextMessage",
"alt-shift-up": "agent::ScrollOutputToTop",
"alt-shift-down": "agent::ScrollOutputToBottom"
}
}
New:
{
"context": "AgentPanel > Editor",
"bindings": {
"alt-up": "agent::ScrollOutputToPreviousMessage",
"alt-down": "agent::ScrollOutputToNextMessage",
"alt-shift-up": "agent::ScrollOutputToTop",
"alt-shift-down": "agent::ScrollOutputToBottom"
}
}
I’ve been using Zed mostly for backend work and really like its performance. I get that it stays lightweight by not bundling too many tools.
For Flutter though, debugging/DevTools and hot reload on save still feel lacking.
Anyone using Zed regularly for Flutter? Any extensions or configs that improve the experience?
Trying Zed editor for the past week and I'm really enjoying it so far.
But one point is annoying me: how do you process your PR review directly from zed?
I was using the GitHub Pull Requests extension in vscode, is there an equivalent in Zed? Or do you have another workflow allowing to do PR review in zed?
