fullscreen

fullscreen is both a set of useful full-screen terminal apps and a framework for building your own. Its interactive tools help you monitor local or remote machines, explore PowerShell objects, browse files, follow logs, and work with Git, GitHub, and Azure DevOps, all without leaving your terminal.

Highlights

• Live system monitoring: ftop brings together processes, services, network, GPU, user sessions, and a live dashboard.

• Remote support: Monitor another computer with PowerShell remoting.

• Interactive charts: Out-Chart explores PowerShell pipeline objects. Choose fields and graph styles, filter and group data, zoom and inspect points, and return selected original objects to the pipeline. Twelve graph styles include line, area, bars, scatter, heatmap, and error bars.

• Sixel rendering: Charts use rich Sixel graphics on compatible terminals and fall back to terminal-cell graphics when Sixel isn’t available.

• Visual TUI designer: fdesign provides a control palette, drag-and-drop layout editing, and live preview. Save and refine layouts visually.

• Build your own TUIs: Compose an app from reusable controls such as tables, logs, charts, tabs, and file browsers, then run it directly or export a ready-to-customize PowerShell scaffold with help, shared state, and event/update hooks.

• More terminal apps: Browse files and pipeline objects, follow logs, and work with Git, GitHub, and Azure DevOps without leaving the terminal.
