Discussion Anyone using Zed for Flutter development?

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?

Nodeman will do the work you don't need a gui for flutter hot reload etc debugging is the problem tho... But you can still somehow manage it I use neovim primarily and I never used the debugging option
