tmux
tmux is a terminal multiplexer
tmux is a terminal multiplexer: it enables a number of terminals to be created, accessed, and controlled from a single screen. tmux may be detached from a screen and continue running in the background, then later reattached. This release runs on OpenBSD, FreeBSD, NetBSD, Linux, OS X and Solaris. tmux depends on libevent 2.x, and on ncurses. To build tmux, a C compiler (for example gcc or clang), make, pkg-config and a suitable yacc (yacc or bison) are needed. Some platforms provide binary packages for tmux. -

Ghostty Blackhole
Ghostty Blackhole puts a real, ray-traced black hole
Ghostty Blackhole is a Ghostty terminal shader that renders a ray-traced black hole directly inside the terminal window. It turns terminal contents into the background sky, so nearby text bends, stretches, magnifies, and disappears through the simulated gravitational lens. The shader can run in different size modes, including a Pomodoro-style timing mode, a Claude Code token mode, and a demo mode. In token mode, the black hole grows as Claude Code’s context window fills, creating a visual warning before compaction becomes necessary. The project uses a single fragment shader and live physics-inspired rendering rather than static overlays. It is useful for terminal customization, visual experimentation, and playful feedback during long AI coding sessions. -

Alacritty
A cross-platform, GPU-accelerated terminal emulator
Alacritty is the fastest open source terminal emulator there is. How is it the fastest? With such a strong focus on simplicity and performance, Alacritty’s included features are very carefully considered, ensuring that it remains blazingly fast. It’s got a GPU for rendering that makes a whole lot of optimizations possible. In various benchmarked terminals, Alacritty has shown to be either faster, or way faster than others. Alacritty requires no additional setup, but still allows configuration of many aspects of the terminal. It supports Windows, macOS, Linux and BSD. -

PHP File Manager
phpFileManager a complete filesystem management tool on a single file.
phpFileManager is a complete filesystem management tool on a single file. A server administration tool using PHP, meant for rapid file access, and also to verify the server configuration and security. The script can be renamed and deployed on an unique known url, and offers password protection.. All dependencies, like images, js and css files, are included inside the same file, so that the script can run even on offline devices, like a local Raspberry Pi, or ESP32 microcontroller. The size of the script is bellow 1Mb, and i want to make it even smaller. To conclude, this script is also a repository of several hand made functions, organized in sections, meant for learning PHP and explore all PHP capabilities. You can learn, copy and use them on your own projects. Help the project with a donation: Will allow the view of two phpFileManager from diferent URLs on the same screen. Like MC (Midnight Commander) does. https://www.dulldusk.com/product/donation-for-phpfilemanager/ -

xterm.js
A terminal for the web
xterm.js is a TypeScript-based front-end terminal emulation component that lets web applications embed fully-featured terminal interfaces. It powers in-browser terminals in tools like VS Code and browser IDEs. Xterm.js works with most terminal apps such as bash, vim, and tmux, including support for curses-based apps and mouse events. Xterm.js is really fast, it even includes a GPU-accelerated renderer. Xterm.js is not a terminal application that you can download and use on your computer. Xterm.js is not bash. Xterm.js can be connected to processes like bash and let you interact with them (provide input, receive output). -

Asciiquarium
Enjoy the mysteries of the sea from the safety of your own terminal
asciiquarium is a playful terminal-based program that generates an animated aquarium entirely in ASCII art. It brings to life fish, whales, sharks, turtles, submarines, and other ocean-themed elements swimming across the screen, creating a lighthearted visual display for the command line. The project is written in Perl and designed to run in Unix-like environments, making it simple to install and execute on most systems. While not intended as a practical tool, asciiquarium has become a popular example of creative programming in the terminal, often used for fun or as a screensaver-style distraction. The animation is randomized, so each run produces a slightly different underwater scene. As an open source project, it has been adapted and extended by the community over time, ensuring compatibility and continued enjoyment for terminal enthusiasts. -
