“You can’t delegate thinking...” — Charles Duhigg

zed

zed is a nice editor with crisp fonts, I use the github dark theme. The built in terminal is fast. However when you first install it enables AI, auto-completion and other helpful features that I don't want.

My zed configuration

This is a way to globally turn off these features.

~/.config/zed/settings.json

{
  "disable_ai": true,
  "show_completions_on_input": false,
  "show_edit_predictions": false,
  "disable_ai": true,
  "format_on_save": "off",
  "theme": {
    "mode": "dark",
    "light": "Ayu Light",
    "dark": "GitHub Dark Default"
  }
}

Turning "format_on_save" off is essential for elixir development. By default zed will remove the semi-colons from the start of atoms whenever you save a file 😱!
