Zellij

MIT Rust terminal workspace with layouts and plugins

Rust / Terminal · OSS/MIT

What's Good

MIT. Layouts, panes, tabs, WASM plugins, discoverable UI. First-class floating panes and session persistence. Fits the agent-terminal lane: predictable workspaces for long-running coding agents.

The Catch

Rust terminal workspace/layouts/plugins — agent terminal lane; not tmux-clone marketing. Plugin ecosystem younger than tmux. Some SSH/remote habits still assume tmux/screen.

Verdict

MIT Rust terminal workspace. Free forever; layouts over tmux nostalgia.
