The best Terminal ever made by the human being

2025 is over, and whenever a year ends, there are always people, habits, and ideas we leave behind. But one thing that definitely won’t be left behind in my 2025 is Warp. What an amazing experience I’ve had over the past year using their terminal.

I’ll be honest: I’m not the biggest or best terminal power user. That said, I’ve used pretty much every operating system out there (currently on macOS), and during my Linux days, which lasted a bit over a year, I was forced to use the terminal constantly. And I ended up liking it. The practicality of quickly editing files, using programs and workflows that only exist in the CLI… once you learn it, things just become easier. Still, I never really felt good at it.

When I moved from Linux to macOS, I didn’t feel like I needed the terminal anymore. But since I was already used to working that way, I kept using it. There was just one problem: the native macOS terminal is terrible. That pushed me to start looking for alternatives.

That’s when, after trying a few terminals on the market, I stumbled upon a startup that had just launched their prototype. WOW. They got me. Between the built-in AI that solves everyday workflow issues and helps debug errors, and the keyboard shortcuts that make you feel like a hacker, the experience completely won me over.

I did run into a few issues with the tool back then and decided to reach out to support. They replied in less than 24 hours, and on top of that, they rewarded me for discovering a bug. Something I’ll definitely never forget. My first bug bounty.

Anyway, sometimes it’s good to be grateful for the small things in life. Today, I’m grateful for every time I need to solve a problem in the CLI and don’t have to spend hours searching for a solution.

Thank you, Warp team.
