Nsh: A fish/bash-like Posix shell in Rust
There is also https://github.com/nixpulvis/oursh which wants to be POSIX compatible with its own extensions. Actually I would prefer if a new shell focuses on bash compatibility.
If features are integrated, then I would probably want to have something about error handling because it is difficult to get right in bash even with shellcheck¹ and gets just worse when things run in parallel.

A Better Shell
A lot of this has to do with the integration between the Terminal and the Shell. A project that came up recently that seems to take on a few of the issues is https://blog.warp.dev/how-warp-works. I've been meaning to write up a proper critique of this project at some point, but I keep getting side-tracked.
I also want a replacement for `fish`, however it's a pretty tall order to implement what I have in mind, and I got a bit stuck trying to find the right abstractions for background job management in Rust (there's a lot going on). But I genuinely believe a multi-language shell with POSIX support will finally allow us to move forward in the terminal environment. UI/UX issues like ctrl-c, window management, and everything else can be implemented as derivations from POSIX, or additions.
While somewhat tangential to the main thread of this post, I'll still leave my (incomplete) shell here for anyone who's interested. https://github.com/nixpulvis/oursh. The README has a decent description of features I want off the bat, and there's a bunch of design level issues in the tracker.
I'll never accept the death of the Terminal environment.

Ask HN: Show me your half baked project
Next Generation Shell. As a shell, it's a programming language and a UI. Half baked: programming language - pretty much done, we use it at work; UI - just starting to work on.
Ananlysis of what's wrong with current shells' UIs and how to fix it - https://blog.ngs-lang.org/2023/09/30/ui-in-ngs/
Project - https://github.com/ngs-lang/ngs
Any help would be appreciated of course :)

AWS while being great at the underlying services, had by far the worst user experience ever existed on a platform at that scale
The plan for UI is at https://github.com/ngs-lang/ngs/wiki/UI-Design
