Alacritty – A fast, cross-platform, OpenGL terminal emulator


A cross-platform, OpenGL terminal emulator. Contribute to alacritty/alacritty development by creating an account on GitHub.

By integrating with other applications, rather than reimplementing their functionality, it manages to provide a flexible set of features with high performance. The software is considered to be at a beta level of readiness; there are a few missing features and bugs to be fixed, but it is already used by many as a daily driver. This means you won't find things like tabs or splits (which are best left to a window manager or terminal multiplexer) nor niceties like a GUI config editor.
