Otty is a terminal emulator designed for developers who want a native and visually polished command-line interface. It provides an alternative to standard terminals with emphasis on aesthetic design and native performance. The tool is built for software developers and engineers who spend significant time working in the terminal and value both functionality and appearance in their development environment.

Otty is a native, GPU-accelerated terminal, designed for anyone who cares about the feel of every keystroke — minimal, fast, and beautiful. A terminal worth using on its own. And when you run several code agents like Claude Code or Codex side by side, Otty keeps it calm and clear — tuned for the agents you already run. Optimization, not complexity.
Designed for anyone who cares about the feel of every keystroke. Tuned for code agents you already run. Otty sits between a traditional terminal and a full agent dev environment. Keep the focused, keyboard-first UI you already love — and gain the workflows you actually reach for, without the panels, buttons, and complexity of an IDE getting in the way. A native, GPU-accelerated terminal that feels like a modern app — designed for how you actually use a terminal in 2026. Tabs, panes, and splits — laid out however you think. Pick up exactly where you left off. Track long-running jobs and get pinged the moment they finish. Reach for what you need without leaving the keyboard. Tune the…from otty.sh

Godspeed is a fast, 100% keyboard oriented todo app for Mac2024 · godspeedapp.com · ▲328Hi everybody, today I'm launching version 1.0 of Godspeed, a todo manager built with two priorities in mind: speed and 100% keyboard orientation.

If you're already a user of an app like Todoist or OmniFocus you should be able find everything you need in Godspeed. I think the most appealing thing to most HN users would be the keyboard…

Whereas this is mostly a terminal eye-candy project to get you street cred, it does have some serious aspects. Firstly it solves the age-old problem of low-contrast text, like when you `ls` a broken symlink and the red background colour is too near your current theme's foreground colour. Tattoy solves this by using none other than the web's WCAG 2.1 contrast algorithm for accessible text. Secondly, an explicit design goal is that Tattoy should be able to polyfill new terminal protocols, the `xwayland` of the TTY if you will. Say if we want to experiment with completely deprecating ANSI…
