Yes? I mean, it even has a system to install plugins made with WASM, from what I saw in the docs. I guess you could just use the basics and be okay with it.

For me, after years of tinkering with apps like Vim, Emacs, and AwesomeWM [1], I've developed a bit of PTSD over the amount of time these kinds of tools can take to configure and master [2]. Zellij feels like it belongs in this category of tools, and perhaps I'm overreacting or flinching. :-)

2: I've benefitted a lot from being able to use vim key bindings with extensions in apps like VS Code and emacs key bindings on places and I'm somewhat glad I spent the time, though.

Those things are optional, though. You can just use the basics and ignore the rest.
