Best Ghostty Config for Productivity

Use this baseline to improve daily terminal efficiency without over-customizing.

Start with:

1. one clear mono font,
2. moderate line height,
3. high-contrast theme.

Reference:

• Theme docs
• Config docs

Define keybindings for high-frequency actions:

• open split,
• close split,
• move between panes,
• jump recent tab.

Treat terminal config like code:

1. comment intent for non-obvious options,
2. avoid stale experiments,
3. review changes monthly.

After one week, check:

• fewer command retries,
• fewer navigation interruptions,
• faster task context switches.
