Top 10 sixel Open-Source Projects

  • chafa

    📺🗿 Terminal graphics for the 21st century.

    • Project mention: what terminal emulator would you recommend? | /r/archlinux | 2023-12-11

    Like some people here and under this post said, I like Kitty and would recommend it to anyone who uses/used Alacritty, as they are very similar in surface. I actually switch between Alacritty and Kitty pretty often, depending on my "mood". I recently went back to Kitty for image support (through chafa though, for better compatibility across terminal emulators). However, Wayland support is poor and I have some issues with fonts being too bold, although it could just be my config...

  • libsixel

    A SIXEL encoder/decoder implementation derived from kmiya's sixel (https://github.com/saitoha/sixel).

    • Project mention: GNU/Hurd strikes back: How to use the legendary OS in a (somewhat) practical way | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-08-07

  • 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.

  • euporie

    Jupyter notebooks in the terminal

    • Project mention: I'm building a new web browser | /r/Python | 2023-05-23

    Currently it's part of euporie-notebook, but I'm planning on splitting it out and publishing the web-browser as an independent project.

  • SwiftTerm

    Xterm/VT100 Terminal emulator in Swift

  • macterm

    Terminal emulator for macOS with 24-bit color, bitmap and vector graphics.

  • rasterm

    encode images to iTerm / Kitty / SIXEL (terminal) inline graphics protocols

  • termimg

    draw images in terminals

    • Project mention: github.com/srlehn/termimg: draw images in terminals | /r/golang | 2023-07-22

    termimg (godoc) (test images) automatically chooses a drawing method that works best for the terminal (in most cases the current one). A Terminal capable of displaying sixel graphics is recommended but not required. Alternative display protocols (iTerm2, kitty, Terminology, DomTerm) or drawing directly into the window/background (X11, GDI+, urxvt) are used. Terminal multiplexers (tmux, screen, ...) are currently only being checked for, later positioning in the panes seems doable (tmux, not screen).
