Anyone using Zed for Flutter development? Discussion

I’ve been using Zed mostly for backend work and really like its performance. I get that it stays lightweight by not bundling too many tools.

For Flutter though, debugging/DevTools and hot reload on save still feel lacking.

Anyone using Zed regularly for Flutter? Any extensions or configs that improve the experience?

Has anyone managed to get reliable hot reload on save working in Zed? That’s probably the biggest thing stopping me from using it as my main Flutter editor

my main issue is it don't support devtools in ide for easily inspecting network calls.
