## Summary
Comprehensive remediation of 146 documentation files to align with Zed's
documentation conventions and brand voice guidelines.
## Changes
### YAML Frontmatter
- Added `title` and `description` frontmatter to all docs missing it
### Settings UI Pattern
- Updated 48+ files to show Settings Editor before JSON examples
- Pattern: `Configure X in Settings ({#kb zed::OpenSettings}), or add to
your settings file:`
- Added `([how to edit](./configuring-zed.md#settings-files))` links for
JSON-only settings
### Brand Voice Fixes
- Removed exclamation points (command-palette, key-bindings, repl,
privacy-and-security, etc.)
- Simplified em dash chains to parentheticals (environment,
troubleshooting, agent-panel, etc.)
- Fixed marketing language (yarn.md intro, development/linux.md)
### Terminology Alignment
- `settings UI` -> `Settings Editor`
- `sidebar` -> specific panel names (Project Panel, Collab Panel)
- `directory` -> `folder` in non-technical contexts
- `workspace` -> `project` in non-LSP contexts
- `Command Palette` -> `command palette` (lowercase)
### Callout Standardization
- Converted various callout formats to standard `> **Note:**` pattern
## Related
Depends on conventions established in #49176.

Update Zed
Zed is designed to keep itself up to date automatically. You can always update this behavior in your settings.
Auto-updates
By default, Zed checks for updates and installs them automatically the next time you restart the app. You’ll always be running the latest version with no extra steps.
If an update is available, Zed will download it in the background and apply it on restart.
How to check your current version
To check which version of Zed you're using:
Open the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P on macOS, Ctrl+Shift+P on Linux/Windows).
Type and select zed: about. A modal will appear with your version information.
How to control update behavior
If you want to turn off auto-updates, open the Settings Editor (Cmd ,) and find Auto Update under General Settings.
