Tmux From Scratch To BEAST MODE

Even to the savvy user, setting Tmux isn't too hard but can often take strange turns where users end up with a bloated environment, unmanaged configuration or simple an uninviting system to use. In this video I'm walking through basic installation, then configuring Tmux to be a beast!

I built the tmux-sessionizer (tms) tool. Kinda blew my mind to just see it pop up on a youtube video that I was watching. Awesome video!

[TantissTheEmperor]

Using tmux for quite some years now and I'm very happy to see it popping more often in youtube videos, people must know this awesome tool !

Just found your channel, great stuff! I recently switched from vscode + vim binds to lazyvim and I'm so happy to live in the terminal. Tmux is so useful but I never liked the default binds so this video is really helpful!

Dude, what an amazing video on tmux. Well done!

[kylejamesross]

Nice looking tmux. Might apply some of these styles to my own config. 🙂I have been using the tmux sessionizer for over a year. It is a really game changer in terms of productivity.

[isaacvicente]

dude, your tmux plugin is so damn good. thanks for that
i shared it on my twitter

great vid btw :)

[shikari]

Thank you for this. I have been an uber screen user for many many years, been looking for a quick start to get to BEAST MODE :) in tmux :)

Recently I have been watching a lot of your videos. I really like your content. And your neovim config looks really neat. If its not too much to ask, could you make a video regarding it?

[kirsanov]

still don't understand why people use "clear" if there is the ctrl+L shortcut

[KronosaurusRex]

Great quality video, really interesting.

This is a clean looking UI. I was wondering what font you're using. Great vid!

[SethMesser]

Question for you, at t=75s, neovim for me has jagged output from line breaks and other oddities, so it doesn't necessarily render all that well for me for pane output. Did you have to do anything special for your nvim config to allow tmux to sanely render nvim? great vid!

[dennisgrishin]

Thank you for the video! Informative and aesthetically pleasing as usual :D Could you share what theme you're using in a plain terminal outside tmux? (sorry if I missed it in your dotfiles, I was looking for smth like zshrc)

Tmux makes your workflow environment flawless ❤

[anatoliipipko]

A great mini tutorial as usual 🙂
So, you tried out Zellij and returned to tmux?

[LuisCassih]

Nice video!, I'll look into your plugins. I too made my own version of tmuxsessionizer ^^, but I switch sessions from inside nvim (launching a tmux popup with fzf), it's pretty simple so I don't need any dependencies, and I only use project folders as sessions names, so I don't really need more features. ThePrimeagen's script really changed my workflow for the better.
The only downside is I can't use tmux in windows (for unreal engine development). I'm trying to get another way to "sessionize" vim without tmux.

[qrockz]

how do u get those nice rounded window tabs in tmux?

Edit: Ah, it's a catpuccin setting

[choice-flaky]

Thank you for the video. Very helpful. Which font are using ? Thank you.

[ani]

how did you get that pink background with the dots? the one at 1:00

[HarryRybacki]

@devopstoolbox where are you getting your fonts from? I'm trying to follow along but notice that many of your symbols (like the diamond) are missing from my system and I'd like to get them included. Thanks!
