Herdr: One terminal to rule them all

Herdr is a terminal-based tool designed to centralize and streamline command-line workflows, allowing users to manage multiple sessions and tasks from a single interface.

Background

- **Herdr** is a developer tool that aims to replace multiple terminal windows (macOS Terminal, iTerm2, Warp, etc.) with a single, unified interface for managing command-line workflows. - Positioned as an alternative to tmux (a terminal multiplexer popular with developers) and modern terminals like Warp or Hyper, Herdr focuses on making it easy to switch between projects, contexts, and sessions without juggling separate windows or tabs. - The tagline "One terminal to rule them all" and the name "Herdr" (herder → one who herds) suggest it centrally manages (herds) your various terminal processes and environments. - Terminal multiplexers have long been a staple for developers who work on multiple servers or projects at once; Herdr appears to offer a more polished, GUI-driven approach compared to the keyboard-heavy tmux, targeting developers tired of context-switching overhead.
