Zellij is a workspace aimed at developers, ops-oriented people and anyone who loves the terminal. Similar programs are sometimes called "Terminal Multiplexers".
Zellij is designed around the philosophy that one must not sacrifice simplicity for power, taking pride in its great experience out of the box as well as the advanced features it places at its users' fingertips.

“The default choice for production React today - server components, file-based routing, and first-class deployment story make it the fastest path from idea to shipped app.”
The Postgres development platform. Supabase gives you a dedicated Postgres database to build your web, mobile, and AI applications.
“A genuinely open-source Firebase alternative - real Postgres underneath, with auth, storage, and realtime built in rather than a proprietary database.”
“Utility-first CSS that's become the default styling approach for new projects - fast to write, easy to keep consistent, no dead CSS to prune later.”
Find vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, secrets, SBOM in containers, Kubernetes, code repositories, clouds and more
“A fast, all-in-one vulnerability scanner - containers, filesystems, git repos, and Terraform/IaC misconfigurations all covered by one CLI tool.”
“An all-in-one JavaScript runtime, bundler, test runner, and package manager - genuinely faster than the Node.js equivalents it replaces.”
“The de facto standard code editor - lightweight enough to feel instant, extensible enough to replace a full IDE for almost any language.”
“A drop-in Node.js/npm replacement that's dramatically faster at installs, startup, and test execution - low-risk to try on an existing project.”
“Makes monorepo builds fast via aggressive local/remote caching - the difference is dramatic once a repo has more than a couple of packages.”
“A content-addressable package manager that's both faster and dramatically more disk-efficient than npm/yarn, with none of npm's phantom-dependency bugs.”
“The modern default frontend build tool - native ESM in dev means a dev server that starts and reloads almost instantly, even on large apps.”
“The industry-standard container orchestrator - not always necessary at small scale, but the default assumption for any serious cloud-native platform team.”
“The most capable open-source relational database available - strong standards compliance, extensions for nearly everything (including full-text search and vectors), and a default choice for good reason.”
“Unifies dozens of LLM providers behind a single API, making model switching almost effortless in production.”
“The standard library for working with open-weight models - thousands of pretrained models are one line of code away.”
“The open-source engine behind Docker - understanding containers here pays off no matter which orchestrator sits on top later.”
“The most widely adopted framework for chaining LLM calls, tools, and retrieval into real applications - a near-default starting point for RAG and agent projects.”
