Features
Built for people who live in the shell
Desktop app for Windows — multi-profile, multi-pane, project-aware, with chrome and terminal scaling that stay out of each other's way.
Multi-profile shells
PowerShell 7, Windows PowerShell 5.1, CMD, Git Bash, WSL, and Python — one click or a shortcut.
Windows-style snap
Drop panes into halves, corners, or maximize. Grid packing keeps your layout intentional.
Independent pane grid
Each shell sits on a free grid with x/y/w/h cells — split, move, and grow into free space.
Tabs in the title bar
Parallel workspaces. Ctrl+1–9 to jump, Ctrl+T / Ctrl+W to open and close.
Projects + session restore
Save layouts and directories. Unsaved indicators in the status bar. Reopen workspaces later.
UI zoom ≠ shell font
Ctrl + / − / 0 zooms chrome only. Ctrl+Shift + / − / 0 changes shell text — independently.
Light, dark, or system
Theme follows Windows or locks to light/dark from the brand menu. Monochrome DevFlare chrome.
Boot splash
Polished loading screen while shells init and last session restores — then you're in.
Command palette
Ctrl+Shift+P for actions. Settings with Ctrl+,. Profile shortcuts Ctrl+Shift+1–6.
Profile settings
Shell path, args, cwd, env, icons, colors — tuned per profile. Missing shells labeled.
Status bar awareness
Active shell, cwd, pane count, save state, UI zoom %, and shell font size at a glance.
Layout
Snap like Windows. Grid that packs clean.
Drag a pane header (or a profile from the + menu) onto edges and corners. Status bar tips guide you while dragging.

How it works
Install. Boot. Snap.
01
Install
Run the Windows installer, MSI, or portable build. Start Menu + desktop shortcuts included.
02
Boot & restore
Splash boots shells, restores your last session, then drops you into the workspace.
03
Snap, zoom, save
Snap panes Windows-style, zoom UI and shell separately, save projects when the bar says unsaved.
