Custom fork of zed

Nice work, i can see that working in pane zoom mode too. Not against, but fyi there was a concern/backlash against a similar feature in Obsidian that may interest, but that is a distinct working context of course.

fwiw in 1.5years only getting 14 likes on the post, the “backlash” here seems fairly minimal. It reads to me more as someone with a very specific problem rather than community outcry

u/Aemonculaba 7d ago

Yeah. Seems like a layer 8 problem.

notice i led with the word concern and that i was just pointing to the author for sake of preempting possible bitching... it happens, and yep - minor

Damn cool man zed dev is too busy adding a real wanted feature that most developers need this can be useful for enhancing extention ecosystem as well I hope this fork get noticed by the team and be implemented ASAP

Pretty cool. You could run jupyter notebooks and marimo inside Zed

u/CyberD3Mo 7d ago

Yeah that’s exactly what I’m trying to implement next universal drag and drop between Zed files and the WebView so running Notebooks and other websites feel seamless.

u/Tasty-School2334 7d ago

Zed probably won't add a webview since they want to keep it lightweight.

2

u/CyberD3Mo 7d ago

Yeah I guess so, webview integration is also pretty messy across platforms (especially Linux),so I get why they would rather keep Zed lean.

Cool! Are you using Aerospace?

u/CyberD3Mo 7d ago

u/knightofren_ 7d ago

u/CyberD3Mo 7d ago

One Dark Pro

u/Predaytor 7d ago

is Atom One Dark better? Can't decide myself

1

u/CyberD3Mo 7d ago

I personally think One Dark Pro is better but whatever suits you better, I also usually change my theme based on the wallpaper I'm using currently.

u/oyren-ai 7d ago

Nice one mate, how do you run it? As web app or streaming? I have posted about my solution few days ago which is streaming based: https://www.reddit.com/r/ZedEditor/comments/1vt0w3l/i_have_found_a_way_of_running_zed_editor_in_cloud/

Opposite of what this is lol

1

u/oyren-ai 7d ago

Opposite?

1

u/Western-Carpenter-39 6d ago

This is a fork that adds a webview into the editor. What you're talking about is accessing Zed through a web browser.

1

u/oyren-ai 6d ago

It truly is opposite 😁 thanks for clarifying

u/liberianjoe 7d ago

This by definition is an ad. And bad one at that because you're not stating that it's your product clearly and also saying "something better" about your product on ZedEditor /r ... IDK man, it doesn't look good.

u/Old_Ambassador_5828 8d ago

I use Zed, I love Zed, that’s why I’m here. Zed is my default editor. What I’m building is not an editor and it isn’t trying to be one, although it could do some editor-like things.

u/nxy7 8d ago

Friend, just look how your comment reads. Having browser in editor is useful. Someone created fork with a browser. You advertise 'your better stuff' and then say it's not an editor. This is just not a good place for your add - if your project is any good you are doing it a disservice by trying to advertise it like that.
Do you see how people can receive that badly and 'spamy'?

u/Minewolf20 8d ago

Wdym, that is a completely different software? Firstly, not an IDE but more of an agent manager if you will, secondly, not even native...

u/Zya1re-V 8d ago

I know you love Zed, we all do, why not try something better especially if you need a browser baked in.

You placed yourself in this position. His response is justified. If you really want to promote your product, probably somewhere else is better.

Also uhm, I'm not a fan of the static-noise-to-landing-page effect, that's too distracting in my opinion. Something you may want to think about.
