I’m not the only developer, but I’ve %90 of the work. Hopefully, we can get more support and expand

It started out as a part-time side project and after a while I started working full time on it. So, I’m not sure I can give an accurate answer to your question. The first commit was made in August 2020
Zas Editor developer here. I think it’s important to address a problem a few people have mentioned so far: no data is collected other than your Mac’s serial number, which used to be used for finding how many computers a license is used on (we no longer do that)
We’re going to add a privacy policy in the website. We haven’t already done that because we didn’t really expect this much attention within hours of releasing. Honestly, we were expecting few downloads and more technical feedback.
Hi, in the current and only version, your Mac’s serial number is collected, which used to be used to ensure one license can be used on only one computer (this is not the case anymore).

No data is collected other than the serial number of your Mac for making sure you can only use your license on one computer, which we realized was a bad idea, and made changes.

Thank you for the feedback. We made a change to the landing page, it should be more clear what languages are supported now. The first sentence now is "A new, capable, and fast code editor for Go and Rust, focused on both reading and writing code". A signup is missing, but you can follow us on Twitter @ZasEditor in the meanwhile.
We are using LSP under the hood, but you can't add more language servers yourself. AS for DAP, a debugger would be a huge feature to implement, we wanted to get it right before releasing it.
I believe Nova added support for vim keybindings recently. We're going to add vim keybindings soon. In fact, we're starting to regret not implementing the functionality for this release!
Hi Raph. It amazing to see you here and thank you for all the xi crates.
> Any thoughts on how you made that decision?
The reason behind that is Zas Editor started out as a fork of Xi Editor! We're also using a fork of xi-rope, though we haven't made many changes to it.
If you would like to discuss this more, DM me at twitter @ZasEditor
@dang our post was marked as [dup]. The title is too ambiguous. Can we update it to 'Zas Editor: Capable, Fast and Native CodeEditor Designed for Reading and Writing'.
