This page collects my writing about Ghostty 👻, the terminal emulator I've been working on since 2021 as a personal side project. This isn't an official website for Ghostty, just a place to collect my own thoughts I've written about it.

• Official Website
• Ghostty 1.0 is Coming [in December 2024]
• Twitter thread originally sharing Ghostty
• Ghostty Discord Server

Devlog

I maintain devlog about my work on Ghostty. There is no regular promised cadence (Ghostty is a side project after all) but after enough interesting things accumulate I'll try to write an update.
