Multi-player Coding with Nathan Sobo

Code editors are complex and demanding pieces of software that are both essential tools and constant companions for developers. Today, we are interviewing Nathan Sobo to hear about Zed, a code editor focused on “multiplayer” experiences, performance and a streamlined, minimalist design.

Nathan Sobo was a member of the Atom editor team at GitHub, which worked on the (now-deprecated) Atom code editor. He will share his thoughts on Rust, the impact of very low-latency collaborative coding on happiness, and how to turn an authoring environment into a first-class concern.
