Zed Guild: What We Built, What We Learned
Blog post from Zed
Zed is an open-source project that thrives on community collaboration, demonstrated through its Guild program, which invites external contributors to work closely with the Zed team over 12 weeks. The program is structured into three progressive tracks—Repro Specialist, Bug Basher, and Feature Shipper—allowing participants to advance as they gain expertise. The first cohort saw significant engagement, with 33 contributors merging 148 pull requests and the standout contributor earning a trip to Rust Week. The initiative emphasizes the importance of building deep, quality relationships over scaling and plans to focus more on collaborative work in future cohorts to enhance contributor engagement and program effectiveness.
