Description

Request to create a Zed editor extension that provides feature parity with the existing VS Code extension (@env-spec).

Motivation

Zed is an increasingly popular code editor, and many developers use it for working with .env files and environment variables. Having a native Zed extension would provide a better experience for Zed users.

Features to Implement

The Zed extension should include all features from the VS Code extension:

  1. Syntax Highlighting - Proper syntax highlighting for .env files and .env.schema files
  2. Comment Continuation - Smart comment continuation behavior
  3. Toggle Comment - Ability to toggle comments on/off
  4. Hover Info - Show hover information for variables
  5. IntelliSense/Autocomplete:
    • Decorators autocomplete
    • Type suggestions
    • Variable resolvers
    • Enum value suggestions
  6. Inline Diagnostics - Show inline diagnostic errors for schema validation
  7. Variable Resolution - Support for variable interpolation and references

Additional Information

The VS Code extension serves as the reference implementation. A Zed extension would follow the same patterns and provide the same level of functionality for Zed users.
