A visual, responsive terminal simulator to practice and learn tmux
In tmux, almost all commands are entered by first pressing the Prefix key (default Ctrl+b), releasing it, and then pressing the command key. Try pressing Ctrl+b on your keyboard to toggle Prefix mode.
A Window is like a tab in a web browser. A Pane is a subdivision of a window. A single window can be split into multiple vertical and horizontal panes to view files or run scripts simultaneously.
Tmux runs as a client-server architecture. If you detach from a session (or your terminal disconnects), all your running applications remain alive on the server, ready for you to attach back later.
