What is this?

Zellij is a workspace aimed at developers, ops-oriented people and anyone who loves the terminal. Similar programs are sometimes called "Terminal Multiplexers".

Zellij is designed around the philosophy that one must not sacrifice simplicity for power, taking pride in its great experience out of the box as well as the advanced features it places at its users' fingertips.

Zellij is geared toward beginner and power users alike - allowing deep customizability, personal automation through layouts, true multiplayer collaboration, unique UX features such as floating and stacked panes, and a plugin system allowing one to create plugins in any language that compiles to WebAssembly.

You can get started by installing Zellij and checking out the Screencasts & Tutorials.

For more details about our future plans, read about upcoming features in our roadmap.

How do I install it?

The easiest way to install Zellij is through a package for your OS.

If one is not available for your OS, you could download a prebuilt binary from the latest release and place it in your $PATH. If you'd like, we could automatically choose one for you.

You can also install (compile) with cargo:

cargo install --locked zellij

Try Zellij without installing

bash/zsh:

bash <(curl -L https://zellij.dev/launch)

fish/xonsh:

bash -c 'bash <(curl -L https://zellij.dev/launch)'

Installing from main

Installing Zellij from the main branch is not recommended. This branch represents pre-release code, is constantly being worked on and may contain broken or unusable features. In addition, using it may corrupt the cache for future versions, forcing users to clear it before they can use the officially released version.

That being said - no-one will stop you from using it (and bug reports involving new features are greatly appreciated), but please consider using the latest release instead as detailed at the top of this section.

How do I start a development environment?

  • Clone the project
  • In the project folder, for debug builds run: cargo xtask run
  • To run all tests: cargo xtask test

For more build commands, see CONTRIBUTING.md.

Configuration

For configuring Zellij, please see the Configuration Documentation.

Origin of the Name

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Zellij (Arabic: الزليج, romanized: zillīj; also spelled zillij or zellige) is a style of mosaic tilework made from individually hand-chiseled tile pieces. The pieces were typically of different colours and fitted together to form various patterns on the basis of tessellations, most notably elaborate Islamic geometric motifs such as radiating star patterns composed of various polygons. This form of Islamic art is one of the main characteristics of architecture in the western Islamic world. It is found in the architecture of Morocco, the architecture of Algeria, early Islamic sites in Tunisia, and in the historic monuments of al-Andalus (in the Iberian Peninsula).
