Wow, never come across this project before; also never used any of the 'workflow dominating' programs they mention (although I've heard of Slack, WordPress and Atom).

Certainly seems to be following a very different approach to the terminal emulator that I use: http://st.suckless.org

It's actually very similar goals and look as st, with the difference that it's extensible through a plugins interface.

Give it a try :)

It's also about 1000 times larger ;)

I don't think you're counting the dependencies.

You are correct, I was not. Didn't actually check what was inside the download from st.suckless.org, which was just the source w/o any dependencies.

st has two goals:

1. have a working graphical terminal for terminal application

2. do no reimplement tmux and his comrades

Does hyper align with other suckless goals like being a small, statically-linked compiled executable?

Does hyper approach 20K LOC? Does st aspire to have a 'wow mode'??

Your 'wow' came out with a more positive tone than mine did. :)
