  • tmux-resurrect

    Persists tmux environment across system restarts.

  • For anyone who's already using tmux and wants to persist their sessions across restarts, I cannot recommend tmux-resurrect and tmux-continuum highly enough.

  • tmux-continuum

    Continuous saving of tmux environment. Automatic restore when tmux is started. Automatic tmux start when computer is turned on.

  • 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.

  • tmux-mem-cpu-load

    CPU, RAM, and load monitor for use with tmux

  • Good article. This was 2015 (!)

    A few years later, I released The Tao of tmux, available for free online: https://leanpub.com/the-tao-of-tmux/read.

    Random: this is a lean, cross-platform program I used in the status line for ages: https://github.com/thewtex/tmux-mem-cpu-load

    tmux has been getting steady updates throughout the years: https://github.com/tmux/tmux/blob/master/CHANGES. It's nice to see a program that does one thing, very well and gets such quality attention.

  • Tmuxinator

    Manage complex tmux sessions easily

  • I’ve become a huge fan of tmuxinator. Incredible tool for defining templates for tmux.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
