A few honest notes since I'd rather front-run the obvious questions:
What "no dynamic dependencies" means in practice: The binary statically links MSVCRT,OpenSSL, and libssh2. Dynamic imports are 13 Windows OS DLLs (kernel32, user32, gdi32, etc.). No Electron, no Qt, no MFC, no Node, no npm. Whether you call that"zero deps" depends on how strict you are; we try to be precise about it.
Some context for why we built this: our vision is to build a infrastructur designed for AI agents use, in the mean time we were tired of every modern dev tool being a 300-500 MB Chromium wrapper. Zed went hard on speed and ended up at ~400 MB with a GPU requirement. We wanted to see how far the other direction could go. Turns out: pretty far.
Happy to answer any questions Thanks for taking a look.
