Show HN: Stećak – a lightweight terminal inspired by Bosnian medieval tombstones

I've been working on Stećak, a lightweight terminal emulator inspired by Ghostty and Alacritty.The idea came from stećci (singular: stećak), monumental medieval stone tombstones found across Bosnia and Herzegovina and neighboring parts of the Balkans. They have distinctive geometric carvings, symbols, and shapes that I've always found fascinating.I wanted to build a terminal that takes inspiration from that heritage while remaining focused on what matters in a terminal emulator: simplicity, speed, and a lightweight experience.The project is still a work in progress, and I'm sharing it to get feedback from people who know terminals and systems programming better than I do.GitHub: https://github.com/alminisl/stecakI'd love feedback on the technical direction, what you'd expect from a modern lightweight terminal, and whether there's anything interesting here beyond the visual identity.
