Ghostty 1.3.0 has been released after 6 months of development, bringing over 2,800 commits from 180 contributors. Key new features include scrollback search (with a dedicated concurrent search thread), native scrollbar support on macOS and Linux, click-events for cursor positioning in shells like Fish, Zsh, Bash, and Nushell, and command completion notifications. Linux-specific additions include two-finger swipe to switch tabs, new CLI window options, and improved GNOME middle-click paste support. macOS gains drag-and-drop terminal split reordering and in-app updating for official binaries. An effort is also underway to get Ghostty into the official Ubuntu repositories.
