Editor is a choke point in our compilation graph while also being a very
common crate that is being edited. So reducing things that depend on it
will generally improve compilation times for us.

Closes#7844
This change uses tree-sitter highlights as a method of showing
typescript errors prettily, keeping regex as simple as possible:
<img width="832" height="446" alt="Screenshot 2025-11-11 at 3 40 24 PM"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/0b3b6cf1-4d4d-4398-b89b-ef5ec0df87ec"
/>
It covers three main areas:
1. Diagnostics
Diagnostics are now rendered with language-aware typescript, by
providing the project's language registry.
2. Vtsls
The LSP provider for typescript now implements the
`diagnostic_message_to_markdown` function in the `LspAdapter` trait, so
as to provide Diagnostics with \`\`\`typescript...\`\`\`-style code
blocks for any selection of typescript longer than one word. In the
single-word case, it simply wraps with \`\`
3. Typescript's `highlights.scm`
`vtsls` doesn't provide strictly valid typescript in much of its
messaging. Rather, it returns a message with snippets of typescript
values which are invalid. Tree-sitter was not properly highlighting
these snippets because it was expecting key-value formats. For instance:
```
type foo = { foo: string; bar: string; baz: number[] }
```
is valid, whereas simply
```
{ foo: string; bar: string; baz: number[] }
```
is not.
Therefore, highlights.scm needed to be adjusted in order to
pattern-match on literal values that might be returned from the vtsls
diagnostics messages. This was done by a) identifying arrow functions on
their own, and b) augmenting the `statment_block` pattern matching in
order to match on values which were clearly object literals.
This approach may not be exhaustive - I'm happy to work on any
additional cases we might identify from `vtsls` here - but hopefully
demonstrates an extensible approach to making these messages look nice,
without taking on the technical burden of extensive regex.
Release Notes:
- Show pretty TypeScript errors with language-aware Markdown.
Fixes ZED-2CQ
We were doing the binary search by buffer points, but due to await
points within this function we could end up mixing points of differing
buffer versions.
Release Notes:
- N/A *or* Added/Fixed/Improved ...
Prior we were only updating the diagnostics pane when it is either
unfocued, saved or when a disk based diagnostic run finishes (aka cargo
check). The reason for this is simple, we do not want to take away the
excerpt under the users cursor while they are typing if they manage to
fix the diagnostic. Additionally we need to prevent dropping the changed
buffer before it is saved.
Delaying updates was a simple way to work around these kind of issues,
but comes at a huge annoyance that the diagnostics pane is not actually
reflecting the current state of the world but some snapshot of it
instead making it less than ideal to work within it for languages that
do not leverage disk based diagnostics (that is not rust-analyzer, and
even for rust-analyzer its annoying).
This PR changes this. We now always live update the view but take care
to retain unsaved buffers as well as buffers that contain a cursor in
them (as well as some other "checkpoint" properties).
Release Notes:
- Improved diagnostics pane to live update when editing within its
editor
When trying to split and clone a non clone-able workspace item we now
attempt split and move instead of doing nothing. Additionally we disable
the split menu buttons if we can't split the active item at all.
Release Notes:
- Improved handling of unsplittable panes
Split out from https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/40774 to
reduce the size of the reland of that PR (once I figure out the cause of
the issue)

We were spawning the process on the foreground thread before which can
block an arbitrary amount of time. Likewise we no longer block
deserialization on the terminal loading.
Release Notes:
- Improved startup time on systems with slow process spawning
capabilities
This PR primarily does two things:
- replace `serde_json::from_reader` with `serde_json::from_slice`, as
the latter is much much faster, even with loading the file into memory
first.
- runs the initial loading of themes and icon themes coming from
extensions in parallel instead of sequential.
Measuring the `eager_load_active_theme_and_icon_theme` method, this
drastically improves the speed at which this happens (tested this method
primarily with debug builds on my MacBook Pro, but the `Before`
measurement was also confirmed against a `release-fast` build):
- Before: ~260ms on average (in one run, it even took 600ms)
- After: ~20ms on average
Which reduces the time this method takes to load these by around ~92%.
Given that we block on this during the initial app startup, this should
drastically improve Zeds initial startup loading time. Yet, it also
improves responsiveness when installing theme extensions and trying
these.
I also replaced all other `serde_json::from_reader` implementations with
`serde_json::from_slice` and added the former to `disallowed_methods`,
given
https://github.com/serde-rs/json/issues/160#issuecomment-253446892.
Release Notes:
- Improved Zed startup speed when using themes provided by extensions
These changes introduce a new command to the Diagnostics panel,
`diagnostics: deploy current file`, which allows the user to view the
diagnostics only for the currently opened file.

Removes `diagnostics.cargo.fetch_cargo_diagnostics` settings as those
are not needed for the flycheck diagnostics to run.
This setting disabled `checkOnSave` in rust-analyzer and allowed to
update diagnostics via flycheck in the project diagnostics editor with
the "refresh" button.
Instead, `"checkOnSave": false,` can be set manually as
https://zed.dev/docs/languages/rust#more-server-configuration example
shows and flycheck commands can be called manually from anywhere,
including the diagnostics panel, to refresh the diagnostics.
Release Notes:
- Removed redundant `diagnostics.cargo.fetch_cargo_diagnostics` settings
Flycheck commands are global and makes sense to fall back to looking up
project's rust-analyzer even if the commands are run on a non-rust
buffer. If multiple rust-analyzers are found in the project, avoid
ambiguous commands and bail (as before).
Closes #ISSUE
Release Notes:
- Made it possible to run rust-analyzer's flycheck actions from anywhere
in the project
Diagnostics updates were programmed in Zed based off the r-a LSP push
diagnostics, with all related updates happening per file.
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/19230 and especially
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/32269 brought in pull
diagnostics that could produce results for thousands files
simultaneously.
It was noted and addressed on the local side in
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/34022 but the remote side was
still not adjusted properly.
This PR
* removes redundant diagnostics pull updates on remote clients, as
buffer diagnostics are updated via buffer sync operations separately
* batches all diagnostics-related updates and proto messages, so
multiple diagnostic summaries (per file) could be sent at once,
specifically, 1 (potentially large) diagnostics summary update instead
of N*10^3 small ones.
Buffer updates are still sent per buffer and not updated, as happening
separately and not offending the collab traffic that much.
Release Notes:
- Improved diagnostics performance in the collaborative mode
Closes https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/33980
Closes https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/discussions/33979
- Switches to the debounce task pattern for diagnostic summary
computations, which most importantly lets us do them only once when a
large number of DiagnosticUpdated events are received at once.
- Makes workspace diagnostic requests not time out if a partial result
is received.
- Makes diagnostics from workspace diagnostic partial results get
merged.
There might be some related areas where we're not fully complying with
the LSP spec but they may be outside the scope of what this PR should
include.
Release Notes:
- Added support for streaming LSP workspace diagnostics.
- Fixed editor freeze from large LSP workspace diagnostic responses.
This PR aims to improve the minimap performace. This is primarily
achieved by disabling/removing stuff that is not shown in the minimal as
well as by assuring the display map is not updated during minimap
prepaint.
This should already be much better in parts, as the block map as well as
the fold map will be less frequently updated due to the minimap
prepainting (optimally, they should never be, but I think we're not
quite there yet).
For this, I had to remove block rendering support for the minimap, which
is not as bad as it sounds: Practically, we were currently not rendering
most blocks anyway, there were issues due to this (e.g. scrolling any
visible block offscreen in the main editor causes scroll jumps
currently) and in the long run, the minimap will most likely need its
own block map or a different approach anyway. The existing
implementation caused resizes to occur very frequently for practically
no benefit. Can pull this out into a separate PR if requested, most
likely makes the other changes here easier to discuss.
This is WIP as we are still hitting some code path here we definitely
should not be hitting. E.g. there seems to be a rerender roughly every
second if the window is unfocused but visible which does not happen when
the minimap is disabled.
While this primarily focuses on the minimap, it also touches a few other
small parts not related to the minimap where I noticed we were doing too
much stuff during prepaint. Happy for any feedback there aswell.
Putting this up here already so we have a place to discuss the changes
early if needed.
Release Notes:
- Improved performance with the minimap enabled.
- Fixed an issue where interacting with blocks in the editor would
sometimes not properly work with the minimap enabled.
Closes #ISSUE
Adds a new `documentation` method to actions, that is extracted from doc
comments when using the `actions!` or derive macros.
Additionally, this PR adds doc comments to as many action definitions in
Zed as possible.

In #32656 I generalized the argument to change selections to allow
controling both the scroll and the nav history (and the completion
trigger).
To avoid conflicting with ongoing debugger cherry-picks I left the
argument as an `impl Into<>`, but I think it's clearer to make callers
specify what they want here.
I converted a lot of `None` arguments to `SelectionEffects::no_scroll()`
to be exactly compatible; but I think many people used none as an "i
don't care" value in which case Default::default() might be more
appropraite

## Overview
This PR adds the minimap feature to the Zed editor, closely following
the [design from Visual Studio
Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/getstarted/userinterface#_minimap).
When configured, a second instance of the editor will appear to the left
of the scrollbar. This instance is not interactive and it has a slimmed
down set of annotations, but it is otherwise just a zoomed-out version
of the main editor instance. A thumb shows the line boundaries of the
main viewport, as well as the progress through the document. Clicking on
a section of code in the minimap will jump the editor to that code.
Dragging the thumb will act like the scrollbar, moving sequentially
through the document.
## New settings
This adds a `minimap` section to the editor settings with the following
keys:
### `show`
When to show the minimap in the editor.
This setting can take three values:
1. Show the minimap if the editor's scrollbar is visible: `"auto"`
2. Always show the minimap: `"always"`
3. Never show the minimap: `"never"` (default)
### `thumb`
When to show the minimap thumb.
This setting can take two values:
1. Show the minimap thumb if the mouse is over the minimap: `"hover"`
2. Always show the minimap thumb: `"always"` (default)
### `width`
The width of the minimap in pixels.
Default: `100`
### `font_size`
The font size of the minimap in pixels.
Default: `2`
## Providing feedback
In order to keep the PR focused on development updates, please use the
discussion thread for feature suggestions and usability feedback: #26894
## Features left to add
- [x] fix scrolling performance
- [x] user settings for enable/disable, width, text size, etc.
- [x] show overview of visible lines in minimap
- [x] clicking on minimap should navigate to the corresponding section
of code
- ~[ ] more prominent highlighting in the minimap editor~
- ~[ ] override scrollbar auto setting to always when minimap is set to
always show~
Release Notes:
- Added minimap for high-level overview and quick navigation of editor
contents.

Follow-up of https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/29706
Instead of doing `cargo check` manually, use rust-analyzer's flycheck:
at the cost of more sophisticated check command configuration, we keep
much less code in Zed, and get a proper progress report.
User-facing UI does not change except `diagnostics_fetch_command` and
`env` settings removed from the diagnostics settings.
Release Notes:
- N/A
Adjusts the way `cargo` and `rust-analyzer` diagnostics are fetched into
Zed.
Nothing is changed for defaults: in this mode, Zed does nothing but
reports file updates, which trigger rust-analyzers'
mechanisms:
* generating internal diagnostics, which it is able to produce on the
fly, without blocking cargo lock.
Unfortunately, there are not that many diagnostics in r-a, and some of
them have false-positives compared to rustc ones
* running `cargo check --workspace --all-targets` on each file save,
taking the cargo lock
For large projects like Zed, this might take a while, reducing the
ability to choose how to work with the project: e.g. it's impossible to
save multiple times without long diagnostics refreshes (may happen
automatically on e.g. focus loss), save the project and run it instantly
without waiting for cargo check to finish, etc.
In addition, it's relatively tricky to reconfigure r-a to run a
different command, with different arguments and maybe different env
vars: that would require a language server restart (and a large project
reindex) and fiddling with multiple JSON fields.
The new mode aims to separate out cargo diagnostics into its own loop so
that all Zed diagnostics features are supported still.
For that, an extra mode was introduced:
```jsonc
"rust": {
// When enabled, Zed runs `cargo check --message-format=json`-based commands and
// collect cargo diagnostics instead of rust-analyzer.
"fetch_cargo_diagnostics": false,
// A command override for fetching the cargo diagnostics.
// First argument is the command, followed by the arguments.
"diagnostics_fetch_command": [
"cargo",
"check",
"--quiet",
"--workspace",
"--message-format=json",
"--all-targets",
"--keep-going"
],
// Extra environment variables to pass to the diagnostics fetch command.
"env": {}
}
```
which calls to cargo, parses its output and mixes in with the existing
diagnostics:
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/e986f955-b452-4995-8aac-3049683dd22c
Release Notes:
- Added a way to get diagnostics from cargo and rust-analyzer without
mutually locking each other
- Added `ctrl-r` binding to refresh diagnostics in the project
diagnostics editor context
resolves#24655resolves#23945
I haven't yet added a default binding for the new command. #27797 added `:ls` and
`:buffers` which in my opinion should use the global searchable version
given that that matches the vim semantics of those commands better than
just showing the tabs in the local pane.
There's also a question of what to do when you select a tab from another
pane, should the focus jump to that pane or should that tab move to the
currently focused pane? For now I've implemented the former.
Release Notes:
- Added `tab_switcher::ToggleAll` to search open tabs from all panes and focus the selected one.

A "Near" block acts similarly to a "Below" block, but can (if it's
height is <= one line height) be shown on the end of the preceding line
instead of adding an entire blank line to the editor.
You can test it out by pasting this into `go_to_diagnostic_impl` and
then press `F8`
```
let buffer = self.buffer.read(cx).snapshot(cx);
let selection = self.selections.newest_anchor();
self.display_map.update(cx, |display_map, cx| {
display_map.insert_blocks(
[BlockProperties {
placement: BlockPlacement::Near(selection.start),
height: Some(1),
style: BlockStyle::Flex,
render: Arc::new(|_| {
div()
.w(px(100.))
.h(px(16.))
.bg(gpui::hsla(0., 0., 1., 0.5))
.into_any_element()

priority: 0,

cx,

- [x] Implement it in the whole app
- [x] Implement it in the debugger
- [x] Glance at the RPC crate, and see if those box future methods can

AsyncFn* into a trait object. There's ways around that, but they're all
more complex than just keeping the code as is.
