About WinTerm2

WinTerm2 is a modern terminal emulator designed specifically for Windows, inspired by the highly acclaimed design philosophy of iTerm2 on macOS. It offers multi-tab support, split panes, theme switching, search functionality, and delivers a smooth and visually appealing terminal experience powered by WebGL-accelerated rendering and ConPTY support.
