  • gruvbox-contrib

    Ports of the gruvbox colorscheme

  • This is the context of my .Xresources file.

  • wezterm

    A GPU-accelerated cross-platform terminal emulator and multiplexer written by @wez and implemented in Rust

  • The solution of course is to use a better terminal emulator. Personally I use wezterm, which ships with 700 color themes to choose from, including gruvbox. kitty is good too, and also comes with a lot of themes. If you need something light weight, maybe alacritty?

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
