<h1 class="mb-10 text-4xl text-white font-display font-extralight">Our Story</h1>
<p class="mt-5 leading-7">We’re the team behind GitHub’s Atom text editor, and we’re building something new:</p>
<p class="mt-5 leading-7">Zed is a fully-native desktop code editor focused on high performance, clean design, and seamless collaboration.</p>
<p class="mt-5 leading-7">We’re in early development, but we’d like to build a small community of developers who care deeply about their tools and are willing to give us feedback.</p>
<h2 class="mt-20 text-white font-display font-extralight">We started Zed for ourselves&mdash;To bring joy back to writing code every day.</h2>
<p class="mt-5 leading-7">Modern text editors have forgotten the core tentants of software – speed and reliability first, features second.</p>
<p class="mt-5 leading-7">While we are building Zed from the ground up built for collaboration, we are putting in the time to ensure every feature we build is performant and rock solid.</p>
<p class="mt-5 leading-7">New software tends to overpromise and underdeliver&mdash;Our goal with Zed is to start small and impress with a singular focus on developer experience.</p>

<h1 class="mb-10 text-4xl text-white font-display font-extralight">We think there’s a better way to write code–and we've been working for more than a decade to bring it into existence.
</h1>
<p class="mt-5 leading-7">
Our first attempt was Atom, which we loved like a child but which ultimately fell short of our original vision. When we created Electron in 2012 to serve as Atom's runtime, there weren't a lot of great options for building cross-platform desktop apps.
</p>
<p class="mt-5 leading-7">
Had we tried to write Atom in C or C++, it never would have shipped, and we loved the idea of developers extending their editor with the familiar tools of JavaScript, HTML, and CSS.
</p>
<p class="mt-5 leading-7">
In the end, however, we reached the conclusion that the editor we wanted to use couldn't be built in a single-threaded scripting language. It was time to start over. Now we're back from the wilderness, this time with the knowledge and tools we need to execute without compromise.
</p>
<p class="mt-5 leading-7">
We're leveraging Rust, conflict-free replicated data types, and every core of your CPU and GPU to deliver an editor that will make coding more productive, fun, and collaborative. We look forward to sharing our best with you!
