If you trigger `cmd-alt-i`, Zed will copy a JSON representation of the current window contents to the clipboard. You can paste this in a tool like [DJSON](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/djson-json-viewer-formatt/chaeijjekipecdajnijdldjjipaegdjc?hl=en) to navigate the state of on-screen elements in a structured way.
Many features (e.g. the terminal) take significant time and effort before they are polished enough to be released to even Alpha users. But Zed's team workflow relies on fast, daily PRs and there can be large merge conflicts for feature branchs that diverge for a few days. To bridge this gap, there is a `staff_mode` field in the Settings that staff can set to enable these unpolished or incomplete features. Note that this setting isn't leaked via autocompletion, but there is no mechanism to stop users from setting this anyway. As initilization of Zed components is only done once, on startup, setting `staff_mode` may require a restart to take effect. You can set staff only key bindings in the `assets/keymaps/internal.json` file, and add staff only themes in the `styles/src/themes/internal` directory
* Adding a setting to the crates/settings/src/settings.rs FeatureFlags struct. Use a boolean for a simple on/off, or use a struct to experiment with different configuration options.
* If the feature needs keybindings, add a file to the `assets/keymaps/experiments/` folder, then update the `FeatureFlags::keymap_files()` method to check for your feature's flag and add it's keybindings's path to the method's list.
* Take the features settings (if any) and add them under a new variable in the Settings struct. Don't forget to add a `merge()` call in `set_user_settings()`!
* Take the feature's keybindings and add them to the default.json (or equivalent) file
* Remove the file from the `FeatureFlags::keymap_files()` method
* Remove the conditional in the feature's `init(cx)` equivalent.
Zed has a Wasm-based plugin runtime which it currently uses to embed plugins. To compile Zed, you'll need to have the `wasm32-wasi` toolchain installed on your system. To install this toolchain, run:
Plugins can be found in the `plugins` folder in the root. For more information about how plugins work, check the [Plugin Guide](./crates/plugin_runtime/README.md) in `crates/plugin_runtime/README.md`.
