Rio Terminal Description

Rio is a terminal application developed using Rust, WebGPU, and the Tokio runtime, aimed at delivering an exceptional frames-per-second experience while also providing the flexibility to minimize GPU usage. The terminal's rendering engine utilizes a Redux state machine, ensuring that unchanged lines are not redrawn, thereby prioritizing a minimal rendering process most of the time. Furthermore, Rio is crafted to be compatible with a WebAssembly runtime, paving the way for future enhancements such as customizable tab systems through WASM plugins written in various programming languages. Additionally, Rio employs WGPU, which serves as a WebGPU implementation designed for non-browser environments and acts as a backend for Firefox’s own WebGPU implementation, allowing for a more efficient utilization of modern GPUs compared to WebGL alternatives. This focus on performance and customization makes Rio a versatile choice for terminal users seeking both speed and adaptability.

    Insanely fast and best terminal tabs

    Edited: Aug 01 2023

    Summary: Rio is crazy fast, I was using Kitty for a long time but after gave a chance to Rio decided to stay with it.

    Positive: I really enjoy the terminal, not only is a minimalist terminal as also have the best tabs of all terms. I honestly don't care about what's going on in other tabs and don't want to be spammed by that. Rio provides a minimal interface besides the fact that is really fast.

    Negative: Still is a quite fresh project so a lot of features are missing like search but it's caching up quite quick.
