The full story
The author pointed REA at the Ghostty terminal app (version 1.3.1) to see what it could do, then built a tiny terminal of their own. REA's macOS inspection found that Ghostty's core is exposed as a C API with 84 exported functions, wrapped in a native Mac shell. AdamTerm rebuilds that shell around the SwiftTerm library, with windows, tabs, font sizing and full screen.
