wavetermdev/waveterm: An open-source, cross-platform terminal for seamless workflows

Very cool ! Modern design, keyboard shortcut, Open Source, Apache 2.0 license and finally cross platform (works on windows !).
It seems to be pretty new but extremely promising.
Honestly I didn’t need it but after trying I can’t change 😅 so thanks to developers and contributors.

An electron based terminal emulator is nothing I am going to use. A terminal has to be snappy and needs to have a low memory profile imo. I also don’t need an OS within a browser. I would rather learn to manage my windows instead of using an overloaded terminal emulator.

I’ve been using this terminal for both WSL and Windows and It’s been an awesome since then. I highly Recommend this Terminal 💚

Really appreciate the initiative.
