Attyx – tiny and fast GPU-accelerated terminal emulator written in Zig

Aside from the AI bits, "interesting" choice to use metal on MacOS, opengl on Linux, and skip Windows entirely.

Initial commit 3 days ago.

A zig-out/bin folder committed.

CLAUDE.md in the root.

README.md full of em-dashes, as are plenty of the doc comments.

Slop.

What is the benefit of GPU acceleration?

My biggest gripe with things that I type into is the latency from keypress to when it shows on the screen. For instance, as I type this, I can clearly see a lag. If someone could come up with getting direct realtime raw access to keyboard to ensure there is zero perceptible latency (some chips that debounce switches can add even 50ms to keypress!), that would be something I'd love to have.
