Well the beauty is the logic lives on the server. The client is just a client.
If it disconnects you just reload the page. It can work just fine in the background because it’s not running on your phone.
Just like you can refresh the ChatGPT website, but OpenCode lives on your pc at home, not OpenAI servers.
yes but I've never seen a terminal interface embedded in a browser that is as good as a native terminal app interface, and blink shell has been well worth the upfront cost to me (way better than Termius, which was suggested in the writeup)
Is it easy to move the text cursor around in the text input in blink shell?
It's not. When using Claude Code (or similiar)you get a lot of problems in every shell about flickering, not being able to copy, not being able to move text cursor and so on. It's bad UX
If using TMUX you can "ctrl + b [" to enter copy mode and then you can move cursor as you wish. I wrote about this stuff too on https://mjqs.blog/meta/
I usually pair Claude with tmux, so you can move the cursor around the Claude output and copy, scroll, etc. that buffer is definitely the way to go. And within the chat box, Claude respects known eMacs/GNU shortcuts for cursor movement, so I like that more than Copilot.
