I had seen and tried tmux multiple times, but it just never clicked for me. Then I found Zellij, and it fit in with my workflow so much easier. I'm not a full time developer, but I do enjoy using and working in the terminal. I highly recommend trying out Zellij if you regularly find yourself in the terminal. Love what you're building @imsnif!

Who hunted Zellij?
Zellij was hunted by Jake Crump. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
