Comparison

Pane vs WezTerm

TL;DR

WezTerm is the terminal for people who want speed and to script everything in Lua. Pane is for using a remote dev machine, and the agents on it, from any device. Both are free and open source.

Where WezTerm wins

  • Raw terminal speed and GPU rendering.
  • Configuration as code in Lua.
  • SSH domains straight from your SSH config, with its own multiplexer.

Where Pane wins

  • Everything besides the shell: files, previews and the dev server, on the remote machine.
  • Your phone. Check and steer agents from anywhere.
  • Parallel agents with a branch per task.

Use both

WezTerm as your terminal, Pane for the remote dev machine and agents.
