先拿来用，再决定要不要深挖

这里应该同时让用户和 Agent 知道第一步该复制什么、安装什么、落到哪里。

# Install
brew install zellij                         # macOS
cargo install --locked zellij               # Rust

# Launch
zellij

# With layout
zellij --layout compact

# Named session
zellij -s myproject
zellij attach myproject
zellij list-sessions

Default keybindings (press a mode key first):

  • Ctrl+p then n — new pane
  • Ctrl+p then d — pane direction (down/right)
  • Ctrl+p then f — toggle floating pane
  • Ctrl+t then n — new tab
  • Ctrl+t then 1-9 — go to tab
  • Ctrl+n then arrows — resize
  • Ctrl+s then d — detach session
  • Ctrl+o then w — session manager
  • Ctrl+q — quit
介绍

Zellij is a terminal workspace (multiplexer) written in Rust. Unlike tmux with its steep learning curve and cryptic keybindings, Zellij ships with discoverable UI hints, sane defaults, and a layout system. First released in 2021 by Aram Drevekenin, it quickly became the go-to tmux alternative for developers who want modern UX.

What Zellij Does

  • Panes — horizontal, vertical, floating
  • Tabs — named, reorderable
  • Sessions — persist across detach/reattach
  • Layouts — KDL-based declarative layouts
  • Floating panes — overlay panes
  • Plugin system — WebAssembly plugins (WASI)
  • Session manager — built-in session picker
  • Discoverable UI — mode indicators and key hints at bottom
  • Copy mode — search and select text
  • Themes — built-in themes

Architecture

Rust binary using crossterm for terminal rendering. Plugins run as WASM modules (WASI), isolated and sandboxed. Each pane is a separate PTY process. State is serialized for session persistence.

Comparison

Zellij Rust Discoverable WASM
tmux C Cryptic Shell

常见问题 FAQ

Q: Zellij vs tmux？ A: Zellij 开箱即用（新手友好、discoverable UI、浮动窗格），tmux 更成熟（服务器稳定性、社区更大、自定义更深）。两者都可以但 Zellij 上手快 10 倍。

Q: 能和 Alacritty 配合？ A: 绝配。Alacritty（极简终端）+ Zellij（窗格管理）是很多开发者的黄金组合。

Q: 支持 SSH 吗？ A: 在 SSH 会话中运行 Zellij 即可。断开后 zellij attach 恢复。
