About FluentTerminal
Project Status: Unmaintained This project is no longer being maintained. Recommendation: Windows Terminal is now a robust, feature-rich terminal application that contains everything I originally set out to achieve with Fluent Terminal, and more. I highly recommend using Windows Terminal as an alternative. Thank you to everyone who supported and contributed to this project!
