# Editing Code
|
|
|
|
Zed provides tools to help you write and modify code efficiently. This section covers the core editing features that work alongside your language server.
|
|
|
|
## What's in This Section
|
|
|
|
- **[Code Completions](./completions.md)** — Autocomplete from language servers and AI-powered edit predictions
|
|
- **[Snippets](./snippets.md)** — Insert reusable code templates with tab stops
|
|
- **[Formatting & Linting](./configuring-languages.md#formatting-and-linting)** — Configure automatic code formatting and linter integration
|
|
- **[Diagnostics & Quick Fixes](./diagnostics.md)** — View errors, warnings, and apply fixes from your language server
|
|
- **[Multibuffers](./multibuffers.md)** — Edit multiple files simultaneously with multiple cursors
|
|
|
|
## How These Features Work Together
|
|
|
|
When you're editing code, Zed combines input from multiple sources:
|
|
|
|
1. **Language servers** provide completions, diagnostics, and quick fixes based on your project's types and structure
|
|
2. **Edit predictions** suggest multi-character or multi-line changes as you type
|
|
3. **Multibuffers** let you apply changes across files in one operation
|
|
|
|
For example, you might:
|
|
|
|
- Rename a function using your language server's rename refactor
|
|
- See the results in a multibuffer showing all affected files
|
|
- Use multiple cursors to make additional edits across all locations
|
|
- Get immediate diagnostic feedback if something breaks
|
|
