I can find no mention of Emacs (or Tramp) in any of the documentation or a sampling of blog posts. It’s as if the authors don’t even know it exists. This is concerning.

(As is their apparent 100% all-in on the AI hype train.)

Yep. Emacs had this 25 years ago. I find editing over SSH a last resort, though, as it introduces a lot of undesirable latency.

Emacs had this 40 years ago. ;-)

Before there was Tramp, there was AngeFTP.

I suggest you give Zed a try then or even VS Code remote, just to compare. They're much better engineered than Emacs tramp.
