libghostty looks really promising! I went with Alacritty as the terminal backend because its core is written in pure rust.

Yes, though it’s still early days. You can install it from crates.io with cargo install horizon-ui or grab a prebuilt binary from https://github.com/peters/horizon/releases/tag/untagged-0e65...

Each commit to main also produces downloadable unsigned binaries in the GitHub Actions tab.

Thanks for letting me know about the settings/minimap overlap, I’ll fix that. And yes, zoom is on the list! I’ll implement it tomorrow. Just wanted to get the core working first without hogging the CPU.

Thanks for trying it! I totally forgot about multiple screens because I use multiple workspaces on an 8K screen.

Splitting across multiple screens shouldn’t be too difficult since Horizon already supports multiple sessions. I’ll try to get it working tomorrow :)
