fast, cross platform, vulkan based terminal emulator.

vterm

a cross platform, vulkan terminal emulator written in rust.

deps:

• vulkan sdk
• rust nightly
• just (optional)

usage:

run it using just:

just build
just run

or just copy out the build script out of the justfile and run it manually.

note: is your platform not supported? either wait or contribute.

note: there is a small execution barrier (200ms~) before the terminal opens on NVIDIA cards, this is a driver related issue. this has something to do with vkCreateInstance and vkCreateDevice being extremely slow on NVIDIA cards. I am hoping to improve it as much as possible, but the biggest overhead lies in the lack of driver optimization. So I think we can expect improvements soon.
