Zellij terminal multiplexer review

Zellij is a terminal workspace. It has the base functionality of a terminal multiplexer (similar to tmux or screen) but includes many built-in features that would allow users to extend it and create their own personalized environment. I explore this new terminal multiplexer and show off its extensibility with its plugin interface!

just an FYI you should make a "HIstory of Terminal multiplexing" video it sounds like you have a lot of experience on the subject.

As a long time screen/Byobu user, this may finally get me to switch to something more modern. I love how you can lock the UI instead of needing to escape all the keypresses that would otherwise conflict with it.

I don’t see enough “cool” or must have features to really switch off tmux. Thanks for informing all of us about it though

[@comosaycomosah]

i quite like your color scheme

This dude has the most "New Zealand-y" face that I've ever seen. But I don't hear the stereotypical NZ accent that I'd expect. I like this multiplexer, thank you. I didn't know it existed.

[@AlsGeekLab]

Haha I live in New Zealand these days but I'm from Scotland, so I'll never sound like a kiwi!
