zutty (X terminal emulator using OpenGL ES Compute Shaders)
Zutty is a terminal emulator for the X Window System, functionally
similar to several other X terminal emulators such as xterm, rxvt and
countless others. It is also similar to other, much more modern,
GPU-accelerated terminal emulators such as Alacritty and Kitty. What
really sets Zutty apart is its radically simple, yet extremely
efficient rendering implementation, coupled with a sufficiently
complete feature set to make it useful for a wide range of users. Zutty
offers high throughput with low latency, and strives to conform to
relevant (published or de-facto) standards.
Zutty is written in straightforward C++ and only relies on OpenGL
ES 3.1 for rendering, making it trivially portable to windowing systems
other than X and operating systems other than Linux. Zutty provides a
clean implementation written from scratch, resulting in a minimal,
maintainable, modern codebase unencumbered by historical baggage.
