Ghostty is a cross-platform, GPU-accelerated terminal emulator that aims to Ghostty is an innovative terminal emulator with very ambitious goals.
push the boundaries of what is possible with a terminal emulator by exposing
modern, opt-in features that enable CLI tool developers to build more feature
rich, interactive applications.
There are a number of excellent terminal emulator options that exist - ✅ performance competitive with the fastest GPU-accelerated terminals
today. The unique goal of Ghostty is to have a platform for experimenting - ✅ highly customizable: variable fonts, background blurring, cursor opacity, window themes
with modern, optional, non-standards-compliant features to enhance the - ✅ feature-rich: splits, shell integration, emojis, Kitty graphics protocol support, and more
capabilities of CLI applications. We aim to be the best in this category, - ✅ cross-platform with native UI on macOS and Linux (and Windows is on the roadmap)
and competitive in the rest. - 🚧 introduce cutting-edge, opt-in terminal capabilities that CLIs can utilize
