Top IDE for Crystal?

I wanted to use Crystal, so I installed Visual Studio 2022 on two of my personal computers.
I never used Visual Studio itself — I only needed the build tools.
(MinGW crystal became available only recently)

Zed with ameba-ls and love it :heart: Previously VS Code.

Been using VS code for the last few years, but switched to Zed a few months ago.

I just need a fast/performant editor with highlighting, autosave, a mini-map, good find/replace and mouse support. LSP support is a nice to have, but only if it’s fast and has low ram usage.

I use helix editor. Still can’t get lldb-dap to work correctly for debugging on a Mac . Does anyone have this working

I’m using Emacs, with LSPs.

You’re kind of locked in when you end up writing a UI for the time tracker at work in your editor, to avoid the web version.
