Warp Terminal — a reimagined terminal experience!

Хрень и не терминал

No it isn’t the terminal of the future, or maybe it is. I think it isn’t simply because it requires login credentials in order to use and therefore it is most likely doing data mining. That doesn’t fly for me. Can’t speak for anyone else.

Coming over so much.

can you review Zed code editor

You really have to have an sign to use the app? Phones home? Spyware? Hard pass.

Login BS and paid features!! Nope.

Tried it out on my personal laptop and really liked it, but no way would my IT department support this product. The fact that output is sent and stored on their servers is a huge security concern. Too bad really.

I just installed Warp. I would have expected a high contrast default setting like iterm2. The existing settings are beautiful but there's no substitute for a high contrast default.

Turning the terminal into a Google Collab style interface.... strange!

I'm a complete newbie, so I'll keep using terminal without warp till I really learn Terminal, but after that, in search of productivity, this thing will be awesome.

i dont know maybe i am lagging behind but i really dont unterstand the usecase for a collaboration terminal

It's not fair that Mac and Windows get new cool terminal apps, while Linux has to deal with supporting 30-year legacy >_<

Insane, felt the need for something like this for a long time

I will try it. I am using iTerm with fish and a theme, but this looks better.

not opensource lol

Haha, terminal was designed so that you don't need mouse to operates it or hell you don't even need a monitor. You can basically linked it to your old typewriter to send input and receives output from the typewriter outputs.
These new generations of dev honestly should learn their history.
Not everything shiny are useful and yeah just because its coming from ex-Google its also wont guarantee its good.
Google has a lot of bad products and they kills it as fast as they flip their customers around 😁

Any linux user would be laughing by watching this terminal. After using a while most linux user modifies their terminal to their own likings and work needs. To that point warp feels like it targets the most basic users who is recently discovered computer is a miracle box.

This is a good project, and I believe the founders' hearts are in the right place as far as their trepidations about open source licensing their business.... It's hard to strike that balance between wanting to make money by building a great product and... y'know all the good things about open source, shoulders of giants, user protection, security, etc. I... ultimately can't see myself using a proprietary terminal with a paid model, personally, unless it becomes extremely popular and self-sustaining. Which is a paradox, because how else is it supposed to become popular and self-sustaining? I want Warp to succeed, but I'm sticking to vacillating between WezTerm and Alacritty every few months.

Thank you for that nice video! ... In your Thumbnail you have a Agnoster like theme for Warp. I tried to get the same but i am not sure where i can find that theme for Warp. I only find "normal" themes.

The fact that it sends my commands back to some server, as far I as I know you can't even opt out of it and what's more it isn't FOSS, is a huge red flag for me. While the idea looks novel, I have no reason to even try it.

Also not sure how tui apps will even properly work and that's kinda a deal breaker for me.

So many new tech for terminal but gotta wait for windows support :(

Was interested in this until you touched on the login - What is to say passwords won't be stored in memory etc? No thanks. oh-my-posh/zsh with Intergrations can pretty much do some of what is useful and user intuitive

How do you see 'workflows' differing from just writing a script? Just sharing/sync features?
Once I've run a complex command for a 2nd or 3rd time, I tend to copy it into a file and add parameters. It's only a few clicks and I have a large list of scripts/snippets I keep for reference. Sounds not dissimilar from browsing a list of workflows in this gui

Warp is super cool, I love the AI command generation for when I can’t quite remember the exact syntax of some uncommon command, saves me a lot of googling, but I can only comfortably use it for my personal projects, since I’m not willing to trust a closed source shared telemetry terminal to ssh into work machines with root access in a zero trust environment. If they made that feature optional, this would be the main terminal app for a LOT of people.

If a paid proprietary terminal with cloud integration is our future...
Then our future is really damned.

Sweet about to give this a try. I’ve used iterm for a while.

Nice ideas but the caveats are extremely concerning to me, the lack of selectively disabling specific features is also very problematic to me and the lack of a simplified core in the case the rest of the system fails is also concerning. Sounds like despite so many good ideas it fails on the KISS standard which is a good way to completely break these type of applications, which itself is a death sentence for a terminal, it should never be expected that every feature of any application always works, segregating of functionality will always be king and this terminal seems to violate this.

As a heavy terminal user, I dislike this honestly. But I have my setup the way I want it, and it's not this. - And I also run two terminals, one pull down and one regular window - plus the one that's in VSCode I guess

Everything now feeds the AIs, It's time to run the shadows. Charge up your cyberdecks.

>For Apple morons only
OK. FU

You seem to be conflating the terminal and the shell.

I need this on Windows like yesterday

I never felt any particular way with Warp, and I don’t like the UX or anything… Yes probably some cool features but I definitely like a more minimal/normal terminal.

I was very interested, lots of good ideas and potential.
But then I lost all interest.
Mac first and only? Lame.
Requires a login? Dead on arrival!

Now I'm going to look/wait for the open source, multiplatform (or at least Linux first), no login, alternative that will implement same/similar ideas.

for collaboration in terminal you can use `screen` with proper access rights multiple users can use the same terminal, but this is a little more complicated ex using vim in this collaboration is it a still terminal or just another ap?

is this closed source? How can I be confident to use this on a work computer?

Internet and AI connected console on my personal computer? F*** NO

They list a number of reasons why they require you to _sign up_, none of them seems convincing

Great informative video! Looks interesting, but I completely agree with your point about signing up... not sure how I feel about that one. That turns me off a bit ngl.

Do not ssh with this terminal

What a shame about the login.. deal breaker for me

I heard Microsoft is revamping the Terminal...waiting to see how that goes..

Great if you live inside terminal. It feels different & defiantly more comfort to type (no more arrow keying).
I wish it can support fig or bring an alternative.

Can you use warp is a non-Internet connected environment? FYI: ctrl r (reverse search) works in bash 5.2.9. I am not trying to minimize what you are explaining, just saying you don't need zsh for that feature. It might work better in zsh and I should probably switch.

Login? Sorry that's a dealbreaker unless it can also cook breakfast.

Login required, closed source. No thanks

I honestly can't see myself paying for a terminal especially when Windows Terminal is really good.
