Add Zed editor to Integrated Development Environment inspired section

[GabrielBaiano]

Summary

Add Zed to the list of recommended IDEs in the Awesome Linux Software for Developers repository.

Motivation and Context

Zed is a modern IDE that has been gaining a lot of traction recently, especially among developers looking for a faster and more fluid coding experience. It is currently available for Linux and macOS, making it a strong alternative outside the more traditional IDE ecosystem.

One of Zed’s biggest highlights is that it’s built in Rust, which directly impacts its performance — fast startup times, low resource usage, and a very responsive experience even in larger projects. It also introduces real-time collaboration features (similar to Google Docs for code), which is still something not commonly seen in most traditional IDEs.

Another strong point is its focus on simplicity and developer productivity: a clean, minimal interface without unnecessary clutter, combined with modern features designed to speed up the workflow.

Overall, Zed has been rapidly growing in popularity and adoption within the dev community, and it makes sense to include it as a relevant IDE option in the list.
