Zen is simply a fork of Zed for those who are happy to use an IDE free from AI, telemetry, and other cloud-based services. I use it as my daily driver and intend to maintain it so that I can also use it as the base for some non-developer tooling I want to create.
Only tested on Linux for now, though Zed’s support for other platforms should be (mostly?) intact.
Heh, the name wasn’t chosen to reach a huge audience anyway. If I get too many users, I might lose my zen over trying to support them 😂
But I’m happy to have a few folks along who don’t mind building their IDE from source.
