A place for developers to talk about building on Farcaster.

I just found Zed, and it is amazing. The responsiveness vs VS Code is night and day. Going to kick the tires on this for the next few weeks, but it looks like I have a new default editor.

Have you tried Cursor yet? Can't go back to VS Code

Has an AI tab and integrations but not as tight as cursor or some vscode plugins.

does zed do cursor.sh-like code completion / ai things?

Once they catch up on cursor features it will be a force

Mainly speed, the extensions are less bloated, and they require less configuration.

The AI options are in a different tab, and it doesn't offer the same level of autocomplete as Cursor, so it could use a little improvement on that front.

Oh will check it out. What do you like about it compared to say cursor @quest ? Mainly just speed? Any other features AI or otherwise?

I love Zed a lot. Only reason I dip in an out is that the AI features are nowhere near as good as Cursor
