Zed rst
August 12, 2026 ยท View on GitHub
reST (reStructuredText) syntax highlighting for Zed.
Installation
To install the Zed plugin, open the Zed command palette (Cmd-shift-p) and select
zed: extensions. This plugin is named ReST there, though it may not be at
the top of the list when you search. Find it and install it.
This plugin has an external dependency on the Esbonio
language server, which you can get with pipx install esbonio.
Esbonio requires Sphinx (and any theme/extensions used by your project) to be available in its Python environment. If installed via pipx, inject them:
pipx inject esbonio sphinx sphinx-rtd-theme # or whichever theme your project uses
Alternatively, configure Esbonio to use your project's virtualenv where Sphinx
is already installed (see Esbonio's sphinx.pythonPath setting).
