Configuration tips

Local config files are in project_root/.zed/ and global config is in ~/.config/zed/. Typical files: settings.json for general settings, keybindings.json for shortcuts, snippets.json for code snippets, extensions.json for extensions, tasks.json for tasks, launch.json for launch configurations.

1) Default terminal to fish (settings.json):

"terminal": {
  "shell": {
    "program": "fish",
  },
},

2) Hide dirs like __pycache__ and .venv in the project tree (settings.json):

"file_scan_exclusions": [
  "**/.git",
  "**/.svn",
  "**/.hg",
  "**/CVS",
  "**/.DS_Store",
  "**/Thumbs.db",
  "**/.classpath",
  "**/.settings",
  "**/__pycache__",
  "**/.venv",
  "**/.idea",
]

3) Visuals (settings.json)

"ui_font_size": 16,
"buffer_font_size": 14.0,
"theme": {
  "mode": "system",
  "light": "One Light",
  "dark": "One Dark Pro",
},

4) Specific formater, e.g.u Jinja (settings.json)

{
  "file_types": {
    "Jinja2": ["html"],
  },
  "languages": {
    "Jinja2": {
      "formatter": {
        "external": {
          "command": "uv",
          "arguments": [
            "run",
            "djlint",
            "-",
            "--reformat",
            "--profile=jinja",
            "--preserve-blank-lines",
          ],
        },
      },
    },
  },
}

5) Tasks (tasks.json)

[
  {
    "label": "1 Lint",
    "command": "uv run ruff format . && uv run ruff check .",
    "use_new_terminal": false,
    "allow_concurrent_runs": false,
    "reveal": "always",
    "hide": "never",
    "shell": {
      "program": "sh",
    },
    "show_summary": true,
    "show_command": true,
    "tags": ["ci", "ruff"],
  },
]

6) Turn off autoformating for one format, settings.json:

{
  "languages": {
    "YAML": {
      "formatter": "language_server",
    },
  },
  "lsp": {
    "yaml-language-server": {
      "settings": {
        "yaml": {
          "format": {
            "enable": false,
          },
        },
      },
    },
  },
}

PyCharm

When you have package / src layout, you need to mark src as "Sources Root" in PyCharm to proper autohelp etc.
