About Mantel

Mantel is a streamlined macOS terminal enhancement designed specifically for developers who work with multiple terminal sessions, such as Claude Code or other coding environments. Its primary feature is the ability to assign distinct colors, icons, and names to each project or session, making it easier to differentiate between numerous open windows. This is particularly beneficial for developers managing multiple projects simultaneously or running complex workflows, where traditional terminal windows can quickly become confusing. Mantel integrates seamlessly with the Mac environment, providing a familiar terminal experience while adding vital visual cues that help maintain focus and sanity during intensive coding sessions. Its lightweight nature ensures it doesn’t bloat the workflow, making it a valuable tool for developers seeking clarity and organization without sacrificing performance or usability.
