</p>

Currently supported Debian distros are:
- Bookworm
- Trixie

Supported architectures:
- amd64 (x86_64) - All distributions
- arm64 (aarch64) - All distributions

This is an unofficial community project to provide a package that's easy to
install on Debian. If you're looking for the zed source code, see
[zed](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/).

## Install/Update

📖 **Step-by-step install guide:** [Debian](https://deb.griffo.io/install-latest-zed-in-debian.html) · [Ubuntu](https://deb.griffo.io/install-latest-zed-in-ubuntu.html)

### The Debian way

> ⚠️ **From 1 October 2026, apt access requires a yearly subscription**
> ([deb.griffo.io](https://deb.griffo.io)). To use this tool for free, download
> the .deb from the [Releases](https://github.com/dariogriffo/zed-debian/releases) page
> and install it manually (see below).

```sh
sudo install -d -m 0755 /etc/apt/keyrings
curl -fsSL https://deb.griffo.io/EA0F721D231FDD3A0A17B9AC7808B4DD62C41256.asc | sudo gpg --dearmor --yes -o /etc/apt/keyrings/deb.griffo.io.gpg
echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/deb.griffo.io.gpg] https://deb.griffo.io/apt $(lsb_release -sc 2>/dev/null) main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/deb.griffo.io.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y zed
```

### Manual Installation

1. Download the .deb package for your Debian version available on
   the [Releases](https://github.com/dariogriffo/zed-debian/releases) page.
2. Install the downloaded .deb package.

```sh
sudo dpkg -i <filename>.deb
```
## Updating

To update to a new version, just follow any of the installation methods above. There's no need to uninstall the old version; it will be updated correctly.

## Building

### Build for single architecture
```sh
./build.sh <zed_version> <build_version> <architecture>
# Example: ./build.sh 0.8.11 1 arm64
```

### Build for all architectures
```sh
./build.sh <zed_version> <build_version> all
# Example: ./build.sh 0.8.11 1 all
```

## Roadmap

- [x] Produce a .deb package on GitHub Releases
- [x] Set up a debian mirror for easier updates
- [x] Multi-architecture support (amd64, arm64, armel, armhf, ppc64el, s390x)

## Disclaimer

- This repo is not open for issues related to zed. This repo is only for _unofficial_ Debian packaging.
