How’s editor support? Does Zed understand the embedded HTML?

It's definitely something we can improve on. Rust Analyzer (which I assume Zed uses) can see through macros to some extent, and so when you use a Rust expression inside the `view!` macro you get auto-completions and stuff like that. There's also the `topcoat fmt` CLI command for formatting.
