<p>Microsoft has recently released the source code of their new <a href="https://github.com/Microsoft/Terminal">Windows Terminal application for Windows on Github</a>. It features multi-tab support with improved font rendering along with other good stuff.</p>
<p>In the close future, the company plans to publish the Terminal on the Microsoft Store for Windows 10 devices.</p>

<p>For now, the new Windows Terminal will not replace any command line interface currently available on Windows operating systems. But, considering that the new interface looks better and is bringing a couple of new features, Microsoft hopes that devs and admins will choose it and dump all other interfaces that are currently available for Windows.</p>
<p>Microsoft decided to go with the new Command Line interface after they have realized that well-known command prompt or conhost.exe could not be used for the implementation of many features that were requested by the community.</p>
<p>One of the key features of the new Terminal is multi-tab support which allows you to launch multiple and different terminals from the same interface. For instance, you&#8217;ll be able to run a PowerShell, Command Prompt and/or other Linux Terminal installed on the Windows system.</p>
<p>Microsoft noted that Windows Terminal uses accelerated DirectWrite Direct-X based text rendering engine. This will result in rendering improvements of the interface and the option to use symbols, emoji, ligatures or glyphs installed on the device.</p>
<p>The Terminal will be customizable by using profiles. These profiles can contain their personal font styles and sizes, color themes, backgrounds, etc.</p>
