Zed for Windows
It’s here—fast, native, and ready for your team.
Built from Scratch
So over-engineered, Zed on Windows is more native than Microsoft’s own editor.
Zed’s multibuffers on Windows
Zed’s direct integration with WSL
Reimplementing Glyph Rasterization
Rendering Paths on Windows
WSL & Remoting is Built-in
Zed now speaks WSL. You can open a Linux distro as a first-class “remote” target, edit projects that live inside it.
Full Extension Parity
All Zed extensions now work seamlessly on Windows; no special steps, no caveats.
Agentic Coding on Windows
All of Zed’s AI features, including edit predictions and ACP-powered agents, are fully supported on Windows.
A Refreshed Rendering Backend
To run on almost all Windows versions, including VMs, we created a new rendering backend based on DirectX 11.
Built in the open
Learn about how it came together
Tune in as Max Brunsfeld, Richard Feldman, and team dive deep into what’s involved when porting a high-performance code editor to a new platform.
Windows is here because of you
We appreciate all the Zed community who has asked, waited, and helped test our beta releases.
