Fluent Terminal

2018 - 2019

A Terminal Emulator based on UWP and web technologies.

Description

As an early user of this terminal emulator for Windows 10, I decided I wanted to help develop it. Unfamiliar with UWP and not fluent in C# I decided to start with a fairly simple requested feature: an about section in the settings window. In collaboration with the project owner I implemented this in Pull Request #103.

Second, I started working on an option to disable the system tray icon as implemented in #142. This option allows one to hide FluentTerminal from the Windows system tray by toggling a switch in the settings. After restarting the application the change will take effect.

On top of that I worked on or participated in the following threads:

#115: Fixed display issues with the settings window.
#155: Collaborated on padding setting.
#177: Close input dialogs using the enter key.
#183: Add option to use bold text in terminals.
#193, #216: Add keybindings for opening new tabs/windows.
#224, #225: Improve tabs functionality.
