Upterm is a terminal emulator with an interactive shell built on Electron, TypeScript, and React, offering IDE-like features such as smart autocompletion as you type. The project is deprecated and no longer maintained, with the README recommending Hyper as an alternative.
Use cases
- terminal with autocompletion as I type
- IDE-like terminal emulator for macOS
- shell that shows command descriptions and expanded aliases
- terminal that runs vim, emacs, and ssh normally
- modern terminal app built with Electron
When to choose
- you want a terminal emulator with inline autocompletion and contextual hints
- you are on macOS or Linux and need a GUI terminal with IDE-like features
- you want to study or fork an Electron/TypeScript terminal implementation
When to avoid
- you need an actively maintained terminal with bug fixes and security updates
- you need Windows support
- you want a lightweight terminal without Electron overhead
