Happy Hocktoberfest to all!

Are you a terminal guru or lover? We are building a cross platform GPU accelerated terminal emulator (Contour) and we are looking for helpful hands in all ways, including (but not limited to):

  • website building (for github.io content), we don't have one yet, yeah
  • packaging for not yet supported platforms (e.g. RPM based, such as Fedora, SuSE, ...)
  • integrating new automated package generation to Github CI (e.g. RPM)
  • improving OS/X support, such as getting native terminfo properly installled via DMG installer
  • Features! Features! Features! You have a nice idea that you want to add? If a ticket doesn't exist for that yet, add it! If you look for a mentor for doing it, just ask.

I have labeled quite a few features and tasks as "Help Wanted" and "Good first issue" already. We also have a Discord that you'll find on our Github project page that you can join to chat with us. p.s.: I'm also live-streaming on Twitch coding on Contour.

You like screenshots? I've added one:

Happy hacking to all of you (regardless of what project you chose) :-)
