<summary>Fast, native, feature-rich terminal emulator pushing modern features</summary>
10+
<description>
11+
<p>
12+
Ghostty is a terminal emulator that differentiates itself by being fast,
13+
feature-rich, and native. While there are many excellent terminal
14+
emulators available, they all force you to choose between speed,
15+
features, or native UIs. Ghostty provides all three.
16+
</p>
17+
18+
<p>
19+
In all categories, I am not trying to claim that Ghostty is the best
20+
(i.e. the fastest, most feature-rich, or most native). But Ghostty is
21+
competitive in all three categories and Ghostty doesn't make you choose
22+
between them.
23+
</p>
24+
25+
<p>
26+
Ghostty also intends to push the boundaries of what is possible with a
27+
terminal emulator by exposing modern, opt-in features that enable CLI
28+
tool developers to build more feature rich, interactive applications.
29+
</p>
30+
31+
<p>
32+
While aiming for this ambitious goal, our first step is to make Ghostty
33+
one of the best fully standards compliant terminal emulator, remaining
34+
compatible with all existing shells and software while supporting all of
35+
the latest terminal innovations in the ecosystem. You can use Ghostty as
36+
a drop-in replacement for your existing terminal emulator.
