GN — ZedExt

GN for Zed

GN language support for Zed, backed by google/gn-language-server and tree-sitter-grammars/tree-sitter-gn.

Features

.gn, BUILD.gn, and .gni language detection
Tree-sitter highlighting, brackets, indentation, and outline queries
gn-language-server integration
PATH or user-configured binary support before automatic download
Automatic binary download for macOS arm64/x64 and Windows x64

Local Development

Install it from Zed with zed: install dev extension, then select this directory.

The extension first checks Zed settings, then PATH, then downloads a matching binary from the latest google/gn-language-server release.

{
  "lsp": {
    "gn-language-server": {
      "binary": {
        "path": "/absolute/path/to/gn-language-server",
        "arguments": ["--stdio"]
      },
      "settings": {
        "backgroundIndexing": true,
        "errorReporting": true,
        "parallelIndexing": true,
        "targetLens": true,
        "workspaceCompletion": true
      }
    }
  }
}

Zed does not expose the VS Code custom commands used by the upstream extension, so this extension initializes the language server with vscode_extension: false.
