  • This is a terminal written with web technologies
* I know it's as weird as it sounds * But hear me out, it's surpringly usable

  • Demonstration
  • We have a context menu
  • Built in multiplexer
* Nothing out of the ordinary

  • Plugins
* Major point of value * Being basically a web frame * Basically limitless posibility for plugins * https://hyper.is/plugins * Can also pull in other javascript libraries

  • Theme store
* More than just terminal color pallets * https://hyper.is/themes * Couldn't get cyber punk to work * But as you saw before it should be doable

  • I don't think I've ever seen a terminal with a package manager
* Basically just a filtered npm * hyper i to install * hyper u to uninstall * hyper s search npm

  • Looks a little different out of box
* Hamburger menu * Window controls * Show config

  • Weird blurred text
* Never seen a terminal do this * Seems to only happen in tiling

  • All keys can be rebound
* At least in theory * Completely missing from the documentation

  • Has a dependency on yarn
  • Noticably slow load/quit being an electron app
* Can open alacritty before hyper

  • No I don't think you should use this
* Giving random javascript this much system access * Not a good idea * I'm not the audience * What I want from a terminal is fairly limited * I don't care aboiut fancy effects
  • Pretty interesting experiment though
