kitty
If you live in the terminal, kitty is made for you! Cross-platform, fast, feature-rich, GPU based.
A fast, GPU-accelerated terminal emulator for power users who live in the command line, built with Python, C, and Go using OpenGL for smooth, high-performance rendering.
Kitty is a terminal emulator — the application that displays a command-line interface on your screen where you type and run commands. It is built for people who spend most of their working time in the terminal and want that experience to be fast and capable. The description highlights that kitty is cross-platform, fast, feature-rich, and GPU-based, meaning it uses your computer's graphics card for rendering. The topics list shows it is built using Python, C, and Go, and uses OpenGL for graphics rendering. The README was not available in the provided data, so further detail about its specific features, configuration options, or supported workflows is not possible from the available data alone.
Where it fits
- Replace a slow terminal emulator with a GPU-accelerated one that renders text faster and handles large outputs without lag.
- Use kitty as your daily terminal on macOS, Linux, or Windows for a feature-rich command-line experience.
