So, similar to the Gnome dropdown terminal plugin? I've never really seen the use of these types of tools. Your terminal should be fast enough to spin up a new window instantly, so opening it on its own is hardly an inconvenience. The bigger problem tends to be in how they obfuscate the program running behind it, which has given me some grief in the past with regards to updating configs.<p>If people find it useful, though, more power to them.
iTerm2 has a quake style drop-down layout that is instant and activated by hot key. I can't live without it. And just curious, is this an electron menu-bar app? What framework did you use for the tty
I don't honestly see a use case for this at all, I'm sure it solves some problem for you else you wouldn't have created it but it just seems slightly ridiculous.
