## Why?

Archipelago is inspired by [Hyper](https://github.com/zeit/hyper). I

started using Hyper as my default terminal while it was in beta and into

v1. It was by far the coolest, best looking, minimal, and extensible

terminal emulator I had used. But, I found it to be really slow, to the

point where if I was going to run a command that I knew would have a lot of

output, I would opt for using a different terminal. Along with that,

occasionally buffers would overlap making the terminal unreadable and

force me to restart.

At the time Hyper was using [Hterm](https://github.com/chromium/hterm)

which was the culprit of all my issues, so I found the

[Xterm.js](https://xtermjs.org/) project which solved all these problems

and I started making Archipelago.
