About

hnterm lets users browse Hacker News stories and follow their discussions directly in a terminal through an interactive text interface. It refreshes its content automatically while running, so new material appears without a manual refresh.

Multiple windows let readers keep several stories open at once and move between discussions without losing their place. This layout works well for monitoring separate threads during a single terminal session, while selectable color schemes let users adjust the display to suit their preferred terminal appearance. It is intended for people who favor text-based access to Hacker News and for terminal-centered work.

Developed by Georgi Gerganov, hnterm is released under an open-source license and is currently at version 0.4. It runs on Linux, requires snapd, and supports the x86_64 (amd64) architecture. Its focused interface is useful for following conversations, checking several stories, or keeping Hacker News available alongside other command-line work.

Requires Linux + snapd · Architecture: x86_64 (amd64)
