    cool-retro-term

    cool-retro-term

    A good looking terminal emulator which mimics the old cathode display

    cool-retro-term is a terminal emulator which mimics the look and feel of the old cathode tube screens. It has been designed to be eye-candy, customizable, and reasonably lightweight. It uses the QML port of qtermwidget (Konsole). This terminal emulator works under Linux and macOS and requires Qt 5.2 or higher. Settings such as colors, fonts, and effects can be accessed via context menu. Just grab the latest AppImage from the release page and make it executable and run it. Make sure to install the dependencies first. Once you installed all dependencies (Qt is installed and in your path) you need to compile and run the application. Also, before the building process, remember to install Xcode and agree to the licence agreement.

The project is quite mature (with many commits and contributors) and supports scripting and automation via an API (including a Python library in the api/library/python/iterm2 path). To build it, you can compile the Xcode project included, and there is documentation and instructions linked from the project’s README (note: issue tracking is handled via GitLab, as the repository refers issues there). The code is organized into modular parts (resources, UI, helpers, submodules), and the project is actively maintained with many releases and tags.

    Rio

    Rio

    A hardware-accelerated GPU terminal emulator powered by WebGPU.

    Rio is a terminal application that’s built with Rust, WebGPU, Tokio runtime. It targets to have the best frame per second experience as long you want, but is also configurable to use as minimal from GPU. It also relies on Rust memory behavior, since Rust is a memory-safe language that employs The terminal renderer is based on redux state machine, lines that has not updated will not suffer a redraw. Looking for the minimal rendering process in most of the time. Rio is also designed to support WebAssembly runtime so in the future you will be able to define how a tab system will work with a WASM plugin written in your favorite language. Rio uses WGPU, which is an implementation of WebGPU for use outside of a browser and as backend for firefox’s WebGPU implementation. WebGPU allows for more efficient usage of modern GPU’s than WebGL. Applications using WPGU run natively on Vulkan, Metal, DirectX 11/12, and OpenGL ES; and browsers via WebAssembly on WebGPU and WebGL2.
