> watching people discover all these tools now that claude code is sending them into the terminal.

Hi, I'm the author of the post.

I don't like replying to comments like this but I think it's important because of how "invasive" LLMs have become and how they might jade your opinion (not you specifically, but everyone) on any type of output such as blog posts, videos, code, etc..

I wrote about this because I've done contract work for lots of companies, spoken with lots of developers and every time they see the output of Delta they are like "how did you make your git diffs look so cool?", so I thought it was worth sharing because there's lots of folks out there who might not know about it.

By the way, this concept of having a terminal based workflow is something I've openly been using, sharing and writing about for around a decade. There's 500+ posts and videos on my site covering a ton of different topics.

You're more than welcome to explore any of the 70+ open source projects I maintain https://github.com/nickjj?tab=repositories, with git histories going back well before LLMs existed. Thousands upon thousands of human written lines of shell scripts, Python scripts, Docker set ups, etc.. Every readme file was written by hand and 99.999% of current day code is by hand too. I've been playing with AI to learn new languages like Lua to solve specific problems but I end up rewriting most of that code afterwards. You can view comments I've made on HN in the past in how I feel about LLM code haha.
