At least the alpha milestone is May 12, but I don't think they've publically committed to anything.

In particular for me it would be great to have a better typechecker than Pyright available for Zed (basically why the editor is a nonstarter right now).

An editor is a nonstarter because it doesn't doesn't integrate the right implementation of some particular optional feature for some particular language?

That's a high bar!

I have some sympathies with the parent post as Zed is my daily driver and I mostly write Python. Pyright is horrible to work with, tons of false positives. Parent poster - you might find this useful: https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/discussions/24801

No it is not horrible to work with. Even the “standard” settings are quite lax.

I think our respective comment votes disagree.

Well, I mean why use a suboptimal tool? I don’t have any ideology to follow, my codebase is just mostly Python and heavily typed. Pyright doesn’t support all the features so I stick with VSCode/Pylance.

So what editor is a starter then? As far as I know pyright is the de facto checker for python in most editors. Not sure why it would be worse in zed, seems to work fine for me. Or as well as pyright can work.
