Ahh bummer :/ > https://github.com/zed-industries/community/issues/174 > Hey y'all – We are excited that you all are excited to try Zed. Just want to make sure expectations are in check – We plan to release on multiple platforms for 1.0, but work on these has not even begun yet.

Developing on a mac is terrible; will take a look when other platforms are supported.

looks around and waves hands at hundreds of thousands of Bay Area developers using Macs

A Unix box with a nice UI? It's what I always wanted.

Cudos first of all on taking on such a big challenge, and seeming to do a good job of it.

As someone who uses a lot of VSC plugins and commands I can't imagine switching any time soon (also no Windows support makes it a non starter for me personally) - but I can still be super impressed!
