Vector

Fast native macOS terminal with first-class GitHub Codespaces and Dev Tunnels support.

Install

1. Download the latest Vector-{version}-universal.dmg from GitHub Releases.
2. Open the DMG and drag Vector.app to /Applications.
3. The first time you launch, macOS will block the unsigned app. Run this once in Terminal:

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Vector.app

4. Open Vector from /Applications (or Launchpad). You should see a window titled Vector with a small build identifier in the bottom-right corner.

Status

Phase 1 (Foundation & CI/DMG Pipeline) — early bootstrap. Phases 2–10 fill in the terminal core, GPU renderer, mux, polish, GitHub auth, Codespaces SSH, Dev Tunnels, persistence, and hardening. See .planning/ROADMAP.md.

Build from source

Requires Rust 1.88.0+ (auto-pinned via rust-toolchain.toml) and Xcode CLI tools.
