Warp Terminal is a similar story, >$50M in funding for a terminal emulator of all things...

- gleenn 2y agoThe funny thing is Atom was the origin story of Zed, written in some C++ and a lot of Coffeescript exactly so it could be very programmable. Also, Spacemacs? It's technically a terminal but definitely has a lot of UI features. Very programmable.
