What Tablif read on tty7's site

tty7 describes itself as: “GitHub - l0ng-ai/tty7: The terminal that outlives its window. Shells survive quitting the app, agents can drive other agents, and remote machines work the same way. Pure Rust, GPU-rendered. · GitHub”

What it is

Calls itself “terminal” and “terminal workbench”.

  • Calls itself: terminal · terminal workbench
“The terminal that outlives its window.”
“…tty7 is a terminal workbench in pure Rust.”

Where it puts itself

Claims “fastest”. Rules out “tmux”.

  • Superlative claim: fastest
  • Says it will not: tmux
“Most terminals tie your shells to a window. Close the window and the shells die with it. So people run tmux inside their terminal to keep them alive, which works, but it means learning a second set of keys and keeping a second config file, just to get around the window. tty7 takes a simpler approach.”
“…cat on an 11 MB file takes 95 ms; the next fastest terminal we measured takes 179.”

What it costs

A free tier, free forever.
