This isn't even a decent terminal emulator in the basic ways. It has an enormous memory footprint, abysmal compatibility, and very little in the way of novel features to offer. If you use a better shell (like fish) it leaves this even less appealing. I'm sure this took some work to do, but I don't know anyone with a job to pay for it, which would use it. The word "efficient" describes the exact opposite of what this is. In addition to all of that, the package includes all of the build-time dependencies with it. And the package they use for the terminal emulator part of it is explicitly abandoned by its author (https://github.com/chjj/term.js/) Nobody should pay 10 dollars(let alone 20 dollars for limited ongoing support) for more than half a gigabyte of unmaintained, deprecated open source code, plus about 2000SLOC of proprietary code for a sidebar which does something which is basically already built into the shell. Also, there is no clear roadmap for this; so it's totally unclear what "3 years of updates" means when half of the thing is deprecated and it hasn't even left beta! |
