Zed Editor

Zed is a fast, multiplayer code editor for macOS and Linux. The official Rux extension adds syntax highlighting for .rux source files.

Installing the Extension

Open the extensions view from the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P on macOS, Ctrl+Shift+P on Linux) and run zed: extensions, then search for Rux and click Install.

Install from source

If the extension is not yet available in the registry, you can install it directly from its GitHub repository as a dev extension.

  1. Clone the repository:
    git clone https://github.com/rux-lang/Zed.git rux-zed
    
  2. Open the extensions view (zed: extensions) and click Install Dev Extension.
  3. Select the cloned rux-zed folder.

Zed compiles the extension and loads it immediately. It reloads automatically whenever you change the source, which is handy while the extension is still evolving.
