High-performance, multiplayer code editor.

IDE
Our review

What we like

It’s very fast! The focus on performance really shows - launch speed, memory, insertion latency are all best in class. Supports Vim-mode. Every buffer is a CRDT which allows real-time collaboration like Google Docs. Language server built-in - auto detects based on the file. GitHub Copilot and OpenAI are built in (opt-in).

What we don't like

Basic Git support. macOS only. Very minimalistic - it’s still early in development so many of the features you might expect from VS Code or JetBrains are missing. But if you want a simple text editor-like experience with the necessary bits from an IDE, it’s in a good state.
