Fast rendering is not a special mode here. It is the baseline.

Fast by default.

  1. 01

    GPU rendering

    DirectX 11 rendering and glyph atlas caching keep frame pacing consistent.

  2. 02

    Tabs + panes

    Recursive splits with independent sessions keep related work in one window.

  3. 03

    Sixel graphics

    Render images directly inside the terminal when the workflow calls for it.

  4. 04

    Instant file search

    MFT-indexed scanning and trigram fuzzy matching surface files without a slow walk of the disk.

Find files.
Fast.

Velocitty builds a background MFT index, then searches it with fuzzy matching. The result stays inside the terminal workflow.
