## Introduction
[Since ~February 2022, the Zed Industries team has been exclusively using Zed to build Zed](https://x.com/nathansobo/status/1497958891509932035). We've built these tools to specifically address our own issues and frustrations with the current state of collaborative coding. These are not features we've built to simply look flashy, we work in channels every week, aggressively dogfooding our own tools.

While we still have improvements to make, we believe we've sanded down a lot of the sharp edges and that experience is both smooth and enjoyable - one that gets you as close to hypothetically sitting next to your teammates as possible, even if you're potentially on different sides of the globe. We want to continue working this way amongst ourselves, but we are extremely excited to work with *you* in this way. We invite you to contribute to Zed *through* Zed.
