Deprecated

Upterm is deprecated. Project had lost maintainer and have zero activity to support it from community (only issues was created in repo).

I am no longer accepting pull requests and issues.

I recomended to check Hyper instead.

What Is It?

Upterm is looking for maintainers

Upterm (formerly Black Screen) is an IDE in the world of terminals. Strictly speaking, it’s both a terminal emulator and an interactive shell based on Electron.

Autocompletion

Upterm shows the autocompletion box as you type and tries to be smart about what to suggest. Often you can find useful additional information on the right side of the autocompletion, e.g. expanded alias value, command descriptions, value of the previous directory (cd -), etc.

Compatibility

All command-line programs (including emacs, ssh and vim) should work as expected. If you experience any glitches, please create an issue.
