Zen: A distraction-free code editor based on Zed (codeberg.org)

Zen is simply a fork of Zed for those who are happy to use an IDE free from AI, telemetry, and other cloud-based services. I use it as my daily driver and intend to maintain it so that I can also use it as the base for some non-developer tooling I want to create.

Only tested on Linux for now, though Zed's support for other platforms should be (mostly?) intact.

What’s wrong with zedless or gram that you did this?

    Nothing wrong with them! But since I want to build another tool on top of it (for fiction/novel outlining and writing) I figured this was a good exercise to become familiar with the codebase. And since I still do some Rust development, having control over both my IDE and my writing software seemed an added benefit :)

    I tried gram, and it was rife with bugs. Couldn't recall the specifics. Interested in zedless, however.

    Hasn't had an update in nearly a year, according to their github. Bit disappointing.
