## About
|
|
|
|
ghostty is a cross-platform, GPU-accelerated terminal emulator that aims to
|
|
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
|
|
today. The unique goal of ghostty is to have a platform for experimenting
|
|
with modern, optional, non-standards-compliant features to enhance the
|
|
capabilities of CLI applications. We aim to be the best in this category,
|
|
and competitive in the rest.
|
|
|
|
While aiming for this ambitious goal, ghostty is a fully standards compliant
|
|
terminal emulator that aims to remain compatible with all existing shells
|
|
and software. You can use this as a drop-in replacement for your existing
|
|
terminal emulator.
|
|
|
|
**Project Status:** Pre-Alpha. This project is not ready to be used as a
|
|
day-to-day terminal emulator. It can't even render vim yet!

## Roadmap
|
|
|
|
The high-level ambitious plan for the project, in order:
|
|
|
|
| # | Step | Status |
|
|
|:---:|------|:------:|
|
|
| 1 | Standards-compliant terminal emulation | ❌ |
|
|
| 2 | Competitive rendering performance (not the fastest, but fast enough) | ❌ |
|
|
| 3 | Basic customizability -- fonts, bg colors, etc. | ❌ |
|
|
| 4 | Richer windowing features -- multi-window, tabbing, panes | ❌ |
|
|
| 5 | Optimal rendering performance | ❌ |
|
|
| N | Fancy features (to be expanded upon later) | ❌ |
