The terminal that
finally gets Hebrew right.

A fast, modern macOS terminal with true bidirectional rendering — Hebrew and English live on the same line, in the right order, every time.

Signed & notarized by Apple  ·  opens with no Gatekeeper warning

Joujik Terminal: ls shows Hebrew filenames, git log shows Hebrew commit messages, and cat shows mixed Hebrew/English — all in correct visual order
What it is

A terminal built for people who live in two languages.

Every other terminal mangles mixed Hebrew–English text: letters flip, brackets mirror the wrong way, your cursor lands in the wrong place. Joujik Terminal renders each line in correct visual order using the Unicode bidirectional algorithm — while keeping copy, paste and selection in true logical order, so what you paste is what the shell meant.

Under the hood it's a real terminal: it runs your own zsh / bash, speaks full ANSI/VT, and adds the things you actually use every day — tabs, split panes, search, themes and automatic session restore.

The differentiator

Hebrew that doesn't fall apart.

Type a commit message, a path, a string literal — half Hebrew, half English. Joujik Terminal puts every glyph exactly where it belongs.

Other terminals: letters reverse, brackets mirror wrong, cursor drifts
