A place for developers to talk about building on Farcaster.

/dev

took the plunge yesterday and configured zed.dev and honestly think i won't go back to VS Code/Cursor. speed is everything.

building farcaster infra @ /neynar 🪐 | casting @ /rish

they all have fairly comparable AI offerings, so after that is speed of syntax highlighting/inspection/errors thrown after they are detected.

VS Code feels glacial with that nowadays, maybe just me?

so tradeoff is speed vs AI? or am I misunderstanding?

1. agreed when you are at stable project state. VS Code becomes overhead then.

2. extensions exist currently, so do you mean a marketplace?

1. writing code ends up being way less time than reading code and documentation (if you write a lot of code, you're doing things wrong, use DRY and don't reinvent wheels, you must write as little code as possible)
2. i hate that zed doesn't have extensions yet (or linux support)

I played around with it but didn't notice much of a difference compared with vscode

will check it out and try to switch as well

appreciate the rec 🫡

Very much looking forward to implementing plugins. I want to switch from VS Code and Neovim

I tried last week, but they don’t have support for custom LSPs or Tree Sitters which is a deal breaker for me. They are working on it, so hopefully soon 🙏
