Libghostty Is Coming

Mitchell Hashimoto announces the development of libghostty, an embeddable library for terminal emulation. The first component, libghostty-vt, is a zero-dependency library (not even libc) that parses terminal sequences and maintains terminal state. The article explains the need for a shared, correct, and fast terminal emulation library for use in editors, websites, and other applications, and provides a roadmap update.
