VTerm is a terminal emulator
written entirely in JavaScript using preact
, a react-like
library to create reactive user interfaces(UIs). To manage our data we use mobx
for its simplicity and event-less flow of information. VTerm provides by default a simple UI that can be extended with themes and plugins, making the terminal experience up to your imagination. VTerm is a place where the tense If You can think of something You can do it
is actually true. 100% hackable, 100% open-source, 100% yours.
You can dowload our prebuilt binaries in the GitHub's releases page
for your platform of choice. Tough keep in mind that these are some of the first releases, and the application state is not yet stable, so you may find some bugs and breakdowns: we'd like you to report these in the GitHub's issues page
!
DISCLAIMER: All the process shown here uses yarn
, and although all these commands can be run with npm, we highly recommend using yarn.
First, on Windows
you'll have to install some build tools from Microsoft in order to compile successfully node-pty
with the command:
$ yarn global add windows-build-tools
Then clone the repository to your computer and open a terminal inside that folder.
Then install the packages with the command yarn
and compile the app with yarn run compile:build
. Lastly, package it for your OS. Respectively:
MacOS: $ yarn run build:darwin
Windows: $ yarn run build:win32
Linux: $ yarn run build:linux
