Scope is limited to prose in `docs/src/**`; no behavior, settings, or code changes. 33 files updated, 49 lines changed. Representative fixes: - `globs.md`: "features varies" -> "features"; "platforms libc" -> "platform's libc". - `installation.md`: "the follow macOS releases" -> "the following macOS releases". - `key-bindings.md`: "command pallets" -> "command palette's". - `linux.md`: capitalization after a period; "able to the environment variable" -> "able to set the environment variable"; "These feature also requires" -> "This feature also requires". - `multibuffers.md`: "Window/Linux" -> "Windows/Linux"; added a missing closing parenthesis. - `reference/all-settings.md`: several agreement/article/missing-word fixes plus an unclosed parenthesis. - `languages/*`: "partent" -> "parent", "complimentary" -> "complementary", "setup" -> "set up", "is enabled" -> "are enabled", and similar.

# Installing Zed
|
|
|
|
## Download Zed
|
|
|
|
### macOS
|
|
|
|
Get the latest stable builds via [the download page](https://zed.dev/download). If you want to download our preview build, you can find it on its [releases page](https://zed.dev/releases/preview). After the first manual installation, Zed will periodically check for install updates.
|
|
|
|
You can also install Zed stable via Homebrew:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
brew install --cask zed
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
As well as Zed preview:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
brew install --cask zed@preview
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Windows
|
|
|
|
Get the latest stable builds via [the download page](https://zed.dev/download). If you want to download our preview build, you can find it on its [releases page](https://zed.dev/releases/preview). After the first manual installation, Zed will periodically check for install updates.
|
|
|
|
Additionally, you can install Zed using winget:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
winget install -e --id ZedIndustries.Zed
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Linux
|
|
|
|
For most Linux users, the easiest way to install Zed is through our installation script:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
curl -f https://zed.dev/install.sh | sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can now optionally specify a **version** of Zed to install using the `ZED_VERSION` environment variable:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
# Install the latest stable version (default)
|
|
curl -f https://zed.dev/install.sh | sh
|
|
|
|
# Install a specific version
|
|
curl -f https://zed.dev/install.sh | ZED_VERSION=0.216.0 sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To install the preview build, which receives updates about a week ahead of stable:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
curl -f https://zed.dev/install.sh | ZED_CHANNEL=preview sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This script supports `x86_64` and `AArch64`, as well as common Linux distributions: Ubuntu, Arch, Debian, RedHat, CentOS, Fedora, and more.
|
|
|
|
If Zed is installed using this installation script, it can be uninstalled at any time by running the shell command `zed --uninstall`. The shell will then prompt you whether you'd like to keep your preferences or delete them. After making a choice, you should see a message that Zed was successfully uninstalled.
|
|
|
|
If this script is insufficient for your use case, you run into problems running Zed, or there are errors in uninstalling Zed, please see our [Linux-specific documentation](./linux.md).
