You don't need a terminal emulator

I always love reading about.peoples set ups. The overall gist of this is that emacs provides the utilities you need and can run shell commands etc so you don&#x27;t actually need a terminal if you go that route.<p>Which I guess is, fine? But, it means if you want a tui tool for something like, interactive with git or files easier. You have to choose from emacs plugins- that feels limiting in a way that isn&#x27;t needed? Like, sure there are emacs plugins for got, but having a terminal based workflow means you can choose from (or develop) more options.

You can&#x27;t tell from the title, but this is an article singing the praises of emacs, not really about terminal emulators.
