    Zed should focus on basics. When it focuses on basics Zed is good.

    <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;zed-industries&#x2F;zed&#x2F;discussions&#x2F;54150" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;zed-industries&#x2F;zed&#x2F;discussions&#x2F;54150 failing to show newly created files and declining to provide a refresh button, instead adding a polling backend, breaks Zed on WSL.

    Why a new version control system? Why not git, jj, or another existing system?

      They aren&#x27;t proposing to replace git though. They are just attempting to make it simpler for developers to follow changes applied by an LLM in an ergonomic fashion. Not saying it will work well but I&#x27;m happy to see someone trying a new approach here.

        I don&#x27;t want someone &quot;to make it simpler for developers to follow changes applied by an LLM in an ergonomic fashion&quot;. I want a text editor.

        I want &quot;VScode without the bullshit&quot;. That&#x27;s what I thought they were building.

          I’m building an in-terminal IDE over at <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;paradise-runner&#x2F;toast" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;paradise-runner&#x2F;toast that does this. No AI, no telemetry, just a text editor that has it all baked in and is easy on the eyes.

            Defining “it all” is exactly the problem here.
