About:
tmuxinator is a command-line utility that allows you to manage complex tmux sessions using simple YAML configuration files. It automates the creation of window and pane layouts, as well as the execution of specific commands upon session startup. This tool significantly streamlines the workflow for developers who need to set up consistent development environments quickly.
Key Features:
  • YAML-based configuration for session layouts
  • Support for project-specific and user-default configurations
  • Commands to start, stop, and copy sessions easily
  • Integration with shell for project switching
Use Cases:
  • Automating the setup of a full development stack (editor, logs, server, database) with a single command
  • Standardizing workspace layouts across a development team
Alternatives:
  • tmuxp – Similar functionality to tmuxinator but uses JSON or YAML and is a Python-based package.
  • teamocil – An older tool for managing tmux layouts, largely unmaintained compared to tmuxinator.
