I personally don't love the idea of the default layout pushing aside my code and filetree to make space for AI tools

I really like Zed, I use it every day. But, if I'd seen this layout when I first installed, I never would have taken it seriously

I imagine this will push some new users away

I suspect it will gain them more users than it will lose

Most other tools doing this are heavy, buggy, and built on electron

Luckily it's very easy to change, although a bit unintuitive for new users. You right-click the small icon for each type of panel in the bottom bar, and select where you want it to be docked. Left click toggles the panel into view.

This was also my first impression. But it seems to me the changes are mostly about swapping what panels dock where (left or right) and maybe some additions/tweaks around the AI panels. On macOS these are still the same:

    ⌘B : toggle the left dock
    ⌘R : toggle the right dock
If you opt-in to the new layout, the panels that used to sit in the left dock are now in the right dock. I will give it a try even for classic coding. One can change what panels get docked where from the settings window.
