Ghostty

About Ghostty

Ghostty runs shell sessions in a graphical terminal with native application interfaces on macOS and Linux. Use it for local command lines, remote shells and terminal programs you already run in another emulator. Try opening a couple of projects in tabs or splits, then test your usual shortcuts, fonts and color theme. Configuration lives in a text file, so you can keep preferences alongside your other development settings. Ghostty is a terminal emulator, so shell startup and completion still come from your shell. If you regularly reconnect to work on another machine, evaluate a terminal multiplexer separately. Compare the same workflow on each operating system you use because the native application interfaces can differ.
