Wave Terminal: An Open-Source, Cross-Platform Terminal Revolutionizing Command Line Interaction

Wave Terminal is a community-driven, open-source, modern cross-platform terminal tool designed to provide developers with a more intuitive, efficient, and seamless command line interaction experience. It's not just a terminal emulator, but a rethinking and renovation of how traditional terminals are built.

Wave Terminal aims to break the boundary that command line can only handle text and enable terminals to display rich graphical components while maintaining seamless integration and interaction with the command line. Wave Terminal comes with many practical built-in features, including:

  • Basic Terminal: Supports common command line operations
  • Directory Browser: Browse and manage the file system easily and quickly
  • File Preview: Supports previewing images, multimedia, Markdown and other files
  • Code Editor: Integrates a lightweight code/text editor for easy in-place file editing
  • Web Browser: Conveniently browse web pages within the terminal without switching windows
  • AI Assistant: Directly integrates with AI models like ChatGPT, bringing natural language processing to the command line

Wave Terminal is written in Rust, ensuring superior performance, memory safety, and cross-platform support. It adopts a modular architecture design, which facilitates the extension and customization of subsequent functions. Currently, Wave Terminal supports macOS and common Linux distributions, and will consider supporting mobile platforms in the future.

As a brand new open source project, Wave Terminal is currently under rapid iteration. Community developers are welcome to contribute code and feedback suggestions. Let's build the next-generation modern terminal tool together and reshape the interaction experience of the command line!
