Alacritty and TMUX: Preventing Duplicate Instances
Posted on 2 mins
Three years ago, I made the switch to using TMUX with aim of simplicity. The idea was straightforward: One terminal window opened with multiple TMUX sessions, each catering to different tasks.

When it comes to Terminal Emulator, I quickly landed on Alacritty because of 3 reasons. It is blazingly fast compared to other terminals out there, as it relies on GPU for rendering.

TMUX - My configurations
Posted on 3 mins
What is TMUX? TMUX is a short form for Terminal MUtipleXer. It allows you to switch simply divide up your terminal real estate into tiny pseudo-terminals running it own independent shells. Features: Terminal Sessions - When you open/run tmux, a tmux session gets created. Each pane you create in the tmux screen gets added to this session. You can leave this session and return to it later, with its state preserved and all the shells (programs) running in that tmux continuing in the background.
