A collection of free GLSL shaders for customizing the visual appearance of the Ghostty terminal emulator. Users copy a shader file into their Ghostty config directory and reference it in the terminal configuration.

Use cases

  • add visual effects to my terminal
  • make ghostty look cooler with shaders
  • apply crt or retro effects to my terminal
  • animate my terminal background
  • customize ghostty appearance with glsl

When to choose

  • you use the Ghostty terminal and want visual effects
  • you want a quick copy-paste shader setup
  • you want a variety of pre-made GLSL effects to pick from

When to avoid

  • you use a terminal other than Ghostty
  • you need custom shaders written from scratch
  • you need guaranteed maintenance or licensing clarity (no license is provided)
