Upgrade your terminal app 🚀
I've spent a lot of time in terminal applications over the years, and have generally found them to be pretty bad:
- Hard to configure and customize
- Poor support for the mouse
- Can't copy and paste
- Ugly interface
Finally, I found one that I really like: Warp. Here are my favorite Warp features:
1. Navigate your history with "blocks"
Input and output are grouped together in blocks, making it much easier to browse through your history.
2. Filter block output
If your command generates a large output that you need to search through, you can filter the output within Warp (rather than exporting it to a file and filtering it in a text editor).
3. Customize your prompt (and everything else)
You can edit your prompt with a drag-and-drop interface, and also customize a ton of other interface settings.
4. Browse previous commands
When searching for a previous command with the up arrow, you can see all of your recent commands at a glance.
5. Open folders
If there's a path in your output, you can Cmd + Click to open the folder directly from Warp.
6. And much more...
- Autocomplete commands and arguments
- Choose from one of many themes (I use Dracula 🧛)
- Select text from the command line with your mouse, or navigate it with keyboard shortcuts
- Ask AI to suggest commands or explain error messages
