Fix usability issues with new panel system. (#2544)
This PR updates the dock key bindings according to the following model:

There are three bits: 
Visible: Opened / closed.
Focus: Panel focused / center focused.
Zoom: Zoomed / Not zoomed.

Each of these variables is 'sticky' in that they won't effect each other
unless they need to. 'Zooming' a panel conceptually merges the visible
and focus bits.

cmd-shift-j/b/r have all been removed.

cmd-j/b/r have been updated to mean 'toggle visibility of a certain
dock', firing them should *always* reveal the panel to you (where you
last left it), or hide it, without moving focus (unless the focused
element is invisible). This means that, when the terminal panel is
zoomed, cmd-j has the same effect as ctrl-`

ctrl-` and cmd-shift-e now toggle a panel's focus, without updating the
zoom state of a panel. Toggling the focus of a zoomed panel causes it to
automatically hide itself, without losing the zoom bit.

When focused or made visible, panels which cannot be zoomed
automatically unzoom everything else so as to preserve user intent of
'show me this panel' and 'everything stays where it is if I don't take
an action'

Release Notes:

- cmd-shift-j/b/r have been removed.  (preview only)
- cmd-j/b/r unconditionally show or hide their associated dock,
respecting zoom settings. (preview only)
- ctrl-` and cmd-shift-e now retain zoom state. (preview only)
- Fixed a bug where terminal dock tab would always be in the active
state (preview only)
- Fixed a bug where terminals would not always open in the terminal
panel
- Changed the look of zoomed panels to fill more of the screen (preview
only)

Zed

CI

Welcome to Zed, a lightning-fast, collaborative code editor that makes your dreams come true.

Development tips

Dependencies

  • Install Postgres.app and start it.

  • Install the LiveKit server and the foreman process supervisor:

    brew install livekit
    brew install foreman
    
  • Ensure the Zed.dev website is checked out in a sibling directory:

    cd ..
    git clone https://github.com/zed-industries/zed.dev
    
  • Initialize submodules

    git submodule update --init --recursive
    
  • Set up a local zed database and seed it with some initial users:

    Create a personal GitHub token to run script/bootstrap once successfully: the token needs to have an access to private repositories for the script to work (repo OAuth scope). Then delete that token.

    GITHUB_TOKEN=<$token> script/bootstrap
    

Testing against locally-running servers

Start the web and collab servers:

foreman start

If you want to run Zed pointed at the local servers, you can run:

script/zed-with-local-servers
# or...
script/zed-with-local-servers --release

Dump element JSON

If you trigger cmd-alt-i, Zed will copy a JSON representation of the current window contents to the clipboard. You can paste this in a tool like DJSON to navigate the state of on-screen elements in a structured way.

Licensing

We use cargo-about to automatically comply with open source licenses. If CI is failing, check the following:

  • Is it showing a no license specified error for a crate you've created? If so, add publish = false under [package] in your crate's Cargo.toml.
  • Is the error failed to satisfy license requirements for a dependency? If so, first determine what license the project has and whether this system is sufficient to comply with this license's requirements. If you're unsure, ask a lawyer. Once you've verified that this system is acceptable add the license's SPDX identifier to the accepted array in script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml.
  • Is cargo-about unable to find the license for a dependency? If so, add a clarification field at the end of script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml, as specified in the cargo-about book.

Wasm Plugins

Zed has a Wasm-based plugin runtime which it currently uses to embed plugins. To compile Zed, you'll need to have the wasm32-wasi toolchain installed on your system. To install this toolchain, run:

rustup target add wasm32-wasi

Plugins can be found in the plugins folder in the root. For more information about how plugins work, check the Plugin Guide in crates/plugin_runtime/README.md.
