“modern”, when it comes to terminals, usually translates to Javascript / web / electron

We are used to badly optimized webapps but there’s some that definitely manage to be snappy wothout taking too much ressources

Not that I dont dislike electron anyway, but I’d hazard a guess that most of the jank we see in electron apps is more to do with javascript and overengineered web UI frameworks than the browser runtime. If it runs like shit in a browser then it wont be much better ported to electron.

Kinda yes, sadly. However, at least they offer some reasoning for it like AI integration with the terminal.

You don’t need to make it an Electron app to have AI integration.

Do you really need “AI”, when a simple autocomplete/LSP plugin does wonders?

Also, you have to be online for that. Uninterrupted electricity and internet is still a privilege.

And even if you did, why would you need Javascript to integrate that, just integrate it the same way the shell completion does.

Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
