The code editor Zed, which was initially only available for macOS, has now been released as open source by its developers. That means the source code is accessible to everyone, and anyone can now use, modify, and further develop the editor. Zed is a powerful editor built by the creators of Atom and Tree-sitter. It enables multiple users to work on a code project simultaneously. It remains to be seen whether there are Linux enthusiasts who will be interested and willing to take on the work.

Update July 10, 2024 Zed is now also available for Linux as of 2024.
