Whippy Term - GUI terminal for embedded development (Linux and Windows)

In plain words

Whippy Term is a graphical terminal interface designed for embedded systems development on both Linux and Windows. It provides developers with a GUI-based alternative to command-line terminals, streamlining workflows for those working with embedded hardware and software. The tool caters to embedded engineers and developers who prefer a visual interface for serial communication and terminal operations during the development process.

From the sources

WhippyTerm is a modern terminal program. It has been designed to have a modern UI and to run on modern OS's like Windows and Linux. It also has a number of unique features such as bookmarks, built in hex dumps, extending through plugins, and native support for binary protocols. WhippyTerm is primarily aimed at embedded developers that need to talk to their devices. It supports serial communication such as serial ports (RS232, RS485, RS422, TTL UART), TCP/IP, UDP. It also supports protocols such as I2C and SPI though plugins. Support for terminal emulations such as ANSI are builtin and always available. Others can be added through plugins. WhippyTerm is designed to work with binary…from whippyterm.com

  Warp, a Rust-based terminal2022 · warp.dev · ▲946

  Hi HN community, I’m Zach, founder and CEO of Warp, and am excited to show you Warp, a fast Rust-based terminal that’s easy to use and built for teams. As of today, Warp is in public beta and any Mac user can download it. It works with bash, zsh, and fish. The terminal’s teletype-like interface has made it hard for the CLI to thrive. After 20 years of programming, I still find it hard to copy a command’s output; I always forget how to use `tar`; and I always have to relearn how to move my cursor. To fix fundamental accessibility issues, I believe we need to start innovating on the terminal,…

  Teetty: a CLI tool to remote control a program running in a terminal2022 · github.com · ▲34

  I needed to remote control a program (and read it’s output) while that tool should still be fully interactive for the user. Obviously there are things like tmux and more but they emulate an entire terminal. This is simpler in that it just sets up a pty and basic pipes or files to send stuff in and read from it.

  Talanoa▲343

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  Tapflow 2.0▲1,125

  We built Tapflow for devs, designers, PMs, and tech folks who’ve been sitting on internal docs, templates, and systems — but never productized them. Upload a PDF, notes, or workshop deck, and Tapflow drafts a structured product (with chapters, teaser and pricing plans). It’s good for AI kits, onboarding guides, design systems, and frameworks. You can sell through Stripe, LemonSqueezy, or PayPal. Real-time collaboration is in early beta. No site builder, no LMS — clean design and just focused tools to ship. Fully bootstrapped and just launched on PH today →…
