# Zed team releases version 1.0 of Rust-built editor

**[DEVCLASS](https://daily.dev/sources/devclass)** · 4 min read · 23 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Zed editor has reached version 1.0, built in Rust by former GitHub Atom team members. The release focuses mainly on bug fixes plus new features like bookmarks and a Git 'view commit' command palette action. Zed uses a custom GPU-accelerated UI framework (GPUI) and is open source under Apache 2. It supports macOS, Windows, and Linux with built-in LSPs for major languages and optional AI features including parallel agents. Notably, the team added a 'disable all AI features' setting for developers who prefer a traditional editor. With only 1,000 extensions compared to VS Code's 100,000+, extension availability remains a challenge. The release sparks broader discussion about whether IDEs should prioritize AI-assisted workflows or traditional code editing.
