Using Terminal as Background
1 project | /r/MacOS | 24 Jul 2021

I don't know if this is the right place to put this question and it's a bit of a strange one but here we go. I was wondering if there is any way to make the output of a terminal window, the desktop background in macOS (Big Sur v. 11.4). I found a really cool GitHub repository (https://github.com/trehn/termtrack) that tracks satellites in your terminal and I want to be able to have it as my desktop background so I can follow the ISS throughout the day. I don't need to be able to interact with the terminal.

There is also an alternative to just unpack the files and serve it form the /priv/static folder. To serve it this way we need mb-util app installed - The files are compressed, so we need either unpack them or rename to have .gz extension - then phoenix will serve it gzipped and add the header for us.
