Tired of switching between apps

I code in Zed and write in Obsidian, switching between the two all day.

So I set out to bring the Obsidian side into Zed — markdown live-preview, drag-and-drop image and file insertion, wikilinks and backlinks — along with the things I wanted for scientific writing: Typst and LaTeX, and a PDF viewer. My pull requests for markdown live preview and project panel sorting were not merged, and the rest of what I wanted was not going to land quickly either — I was not the first to try: zed#51040, zed#9152, zed#21717.

None of that is a complaint. Zed is the editor I love, and it stays that way because the team keeps it focused. A writing environment is not what they are building.

So I developed a version of Zed that has these things, plus the small ones I kept reaching for, like a project panel header with new-file, sort, and collapse buttons. Suzuri tracks Zed's main branch and merges upstream, so every improvement they ship arrives here too.
