What this page does not answer
We hold Zed’s repository facts and nothing checked for Firebase Studio: no commit history, no licence, no release and no price. One column of facts is not a comparison, so this page names no winner and states no difference between the two. Tools get a full page in the order people search for them, and this one changes on the next build after that happens.
Questions people ask
- Are Firebase Studio and Zed still maintained?
- Firebase Studio has no repository we track. Zed committed to zed-industries/zed (main) on 8 Oct 2026. Both readings come from the default branch of each repository, on the date shown beside them.
- Is Firebase Studio or Zed open source?
- We have not read a licence for Firebase Studio. Zed's repository zed-industries/zed reports the Other licence. We read the licence GitHub reports for the repository, which is not the same question as whether the hosted product is free.
How we check this page
- Machine facts. Stars, contributors, the newest commit on the default branch, the licence GitHub reports and the latest stable release come from the GitHub API, and download counts from npm, PyPI, Homebrew and the VS Code Marketplace. Each value carries the day it was last confirmed, never the day this page was built. The line under each label is arithmetic on those two values.
- Judgments. Every claim about what a tool suits, what it is bad at and what it costs is quoted from a page we read, and that page is linked beside the claim. Where there is no link, we wrote no claim.
- Index status. We track Zed's repository and hold nothing checked for Firebase Studio, so there is no comparison to make yet. So this page asks search engines not to index it, and it will ask again on every build until the data changes.
