Instead of manually creating windows, panes, and running commands each time, you write a configuration file once describing your layout, shell commands, and working directories, then restore the entire session with a single command. It wraps the libtmux library and supports multiple configuration formats, including tmuxinator and teamocil styles.\n\nThe tool is useful for developers who work with consistent terminal setups\u2014development environments, monitoring dashboards, or multi-service local testing rigs. It also includes utilities to freeze (snapshot) running sessions, convert between YAML and JSON formats, and a Python shell for interactive tmux manipulation. You can load sessions in the background, run pre-load hooks for setup scripts, and organize configs in standard directories like ~/.config/tmuxp/.","worth_installing":"Yes. tmuxp is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, low install friction, and solves a real problem for anyone using tmux regularly. The MIT license is permissive. Install it if you find yourself recreating the same tmux layouts repeatedly or want to version-control your terminal workspace configuration."},"id":"tmuxp","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/tmuxp","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/tmuxp.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/tmuxp/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-07-04","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"tmuxp","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Session manager for tmux, which allows users to save and load tmux sessions through simple configuration files."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":136558,"position":11393,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.74.0"}
