The Laravel team has released an official Laravel extension for the Zed editor (v0.1.0), connecting Laravel LSP to provide completions, hover info, diagnostics, document links, and code actions for PHP and Blade files. Laravel LSP, announced at Laracon US 2026, is a first-party language server that understands your application context — completing config keys, route names, view paths, translation strings, middleware, Livewire components, and more. Installation is straightforward via Zed's extension registry with no manual setup required; the extension auto-downloads and updates the language server binary. A community Laravel extension for Zed also exists and takes a different approach (tree-sitter parsing vs. running PHP scripts), and the two should not be run simultaneously. Zed now joins Sublime Text, Cursor, VS Code, Neovim, and OpenCode with official Laravel LSP support.
