+# Zellij - A workspace lives in your terminal
+
+Zellij is a terminal workspace with batteries included.
+At its core, it is a terminal multiplexer (similar to tmux and screen), but this is merely its infrastructure layer.
+
+Zellij is very user-friendly and easy to use, with a step-by-step hint system that will help you get to know the keybindings, which is very like the Neovim or helix.
+
+> By contrast, tmux's key design is counterintuitive, there is no prompt system, and the plug-in performance is rubbish. It's really a pain to use.
+> tmux's inital release was in 2007, it's too old, I would recommend any users that do not have a experience with multiplexer to use zellij instead of tmux.
+
+## Why use zellij as the detault terminal environment?
+
+By auto start zellij on shell login, and exit the shell session on zellij exit, we can use zellij as the default terminal environment.
+
+By this way, We will only use the most basic features of the terminal emulator(kitty/alacritty/wezterm/...),
+while most of the functions of terminal are provided by zellij.
+Thus we can easily switch to any terminal emulator without losing any key functions,
+and do not need to take care of the differences between different terminal emulators.
+
+And Zellij can be used not only locally, but also on any remote server, which is very convenient. Learn once and use everywhere!
+
+> Yeah, you didn't misread it, zellij is very suitable for not only remotely, but also locally!
+
+Some features such as search/copy/scrollback in different terminal emulators are implemented in different ways, and has different user experience.
+For example, Wezterm's default search function is very basic, and it's not easy to use. Kitty's scrollback search/copy is really tricky to use.
+As for some Editor such as Neovim, its intergrated terminal is really useful, but zellij is more powerful and useful than it, and more stable!
+Zellij overcomes these problems, and provides a unified user experience for all terminal emulators!
+
+Teminal emulators should only be responsible for displaying characters.
