Ghostty in your browser
Ghostty Playground runs the real Ghostty terminal engine — the same WebAssembly core as the desktop app — directly in your browser tab. There is nothing to install. Open the page and you have a full Linux shell running inside a BrowserPod sandbox.
It supports the Ghostty config file format, so you can paste in your existing ~/.config/ghostty/config and have your fonts, colours, cursor style, and keybindings working immediately. Right-click the terminal and choose Config Panel to browse 500+ bundled themes.
What works
- Ghostty config format — same key=value syntax as the desktop app
- 500+ themes from the official Ghostty catalogue
- Custom keybindings with Ghostty's full action syntax
- Multi-tab sessions, each with its own shell
- Persistent filesystem via browser storage
- Kitty keyboard protocol (Ctrl+key combos, modifier keys)
- Terminal Inspector — live view of VT modes, cursor, palette, I/O stream
