This repository provides a comprehensive setup guide for the Zed code editor, targeting developers who want to enhance their workflow with Vim emulation, custom settings, and keybindings. It aims to deliver a seamless and productive coding experience by pre-configuring features like Nerd Fonts, AI assistance, and optimized UI elements.

How It Works

The setup involves applying a detailed settings.json and keymap.json to Zed. The settings.json configures aspects like the Git panel, icon themes, AI providers (Copilot Chat or local Ollama), font choices, indentation guides, and file scan exclusions. The keymap.json defines extensive Vim-like keybindings for navigation, Git operations, buffer management, code actions, and terminal interaction, aiming to replicate familiar Vim workflows within Zed.

Quick Start & Requirements

• Install Zed: Download from zed.dev.
• Install Nerd Font: curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/getnf/getnf/main/install.sh | bash
• Configure Zed: Copy provided settings.json and keymap.json into Zed's configuration directory.
• Optional AI Setup: Follow Ollama Setup Guide for local AI.

Highlighted Details

• Full Vim mode emulation with sneak and relative line numbers.
• Integrated AI assistance with support for Copilot Chat and local Ollama models.
• Extensive keybindings for Git, buffer management, and code navigation.
• Pre-configured LSP settings for Tailwind CSS and Python (Ruff, Pyright).
• Customization for file type highlighting and scan exclusions.
