I tried Zed just yesterday and sadly my experience wasn’t “just works”. It just works if you haven’t used any of the Neovim configs/distributions. But for someone who already uses LazyVim, LunarVim..etc., it’s kind of meeting the expectations.
The issue for me was with the Docker LSP. I have a codebase where a Dockerfile is a Jinja Template. Zed’s syntax highlighting broke at the first curly braces. Both my Doom EMacs and LazyVim seem to have no problem with it. I couldn’t work beyond that point.

Jesus
Trust me. I feel the same way.
Is it named Dockerfile or Dockerfile.jinja?
It’s named Dockerfile. However, I suspect if it’s named jinja, the Docker parts won’t be syntax highlighted!?!?
In my experience, yes. But you can't really expect a syntax highlighter to support every combination of template language and file language, so this seems reasonable enough.
