➔ tmux reference
If you spend a lot of time in the terminal, you’ve probably heard of tmux. It’s a terminal multiplexer — a tool that lets you create multiple terminal sessions inside a single window, detach from them, and reattach later, even across different machines or after an SSH disconnection. In short, it makes your terminal workflow persistent, flexible, and powerful.
I’ve been using tmux daily for years, and it’s one of those tools that feels indispensable once you get comfortable with it. This post is a deep dive into what tmux is, why it matters, and how to use it effectively — written as a friendly guide rather than a dry man page.
