Among Terminal

A native GNOME terminal multiplexer built with Rust, GTK4, libadwaita and VTE. Keep shells running in split panes and named workspaces, with keyboard controls and optional status plugins.

Installation

Download the file for your system. The links always fetch the latest release; no Rust toolchain or compilation is needed.

x86-64 (amd64)	ARM 64-bit (arm64)

AppImages require glibc 2.39 or newer.

uname -m prints x86_64 for amd64 and aarch64 for arm64. Install from the download directory, using the file name you downloaded:

sudo apt install ./among-terminal-ubuntu24.04-amd64.deb   # Debian, Ubuntu
sudo dnf install ./among-terminal-fedora44-amd64.rpm      # Fedora
chmod +x among-terminal-amd64.AppImage && ./among-terminal-amd64.AppImage

Start Among Terminal from the applications menu, or run among. To verify downloads, put SHA256SUMS next to them and run sha256sum --check --ignore-missing SHA256SUMS.

The installation guide covers AppImage requirements, binary archives, updates and removal. Earlier versions and their notes are on the releases page. For the optional cargo install --git source-build route, see building from source.
