![]() ![]() The path we will use to link the configuration will be $HOME/.config/alacritty/alacritty.yml, although you have more directories in the documentation. In this article we are going to see a simple but very functional configuration of the Alacritty terminal in conjunction with ZSH and tmux.Īs we have previously mentioned, Alacritty is configured using a dotfile that we will save in our stow directory, so we will create the whole file structure that we will then link in our $HOME with stow. It is also a dotfile configurable terminal, a very positive point since I can include it in my dotfile collection. But I added a third element to the equation of what I was looking for, and that was to be cross platform, not having to be configuring N terminals for each OS that I have to use throughout my career, that’s where Alacritty comes in.ĭisclaimer: I don’t make intensive use of the terminal, as a developer I spend more time in IntelliJ.Īlacritty is sold as the fastest since it uses OpenGL, and it is true that I have noticed some speed when loading, although it may be placebo, I have no complaints about the speed of iTerm2. The theme is something very common in most of the terminals and the tabs, in the modern ones, too. The first thing I needed was to see what I really needed, which came to be the theme and tabs. I recently had the pleasure (and it’s not ironic) of working with the Windows environment and its WSL2, and I went crazy to find something similar. The problem comes when we go to another operating system. It is well known by the mac community and not for less, a terminal is not that it has much work to do but the little it has to do, it does it very well (tabs, tmux integration, customization). I’ve been working on mac for many years with the same terminal: iTerm2. ![]()
