Output Adapters

An output adapter renders or records command entries, values from terminal.stdout() and terminal.stderr(), and terminal.clearOutput() operations. Pass one through TerminalConfig.output:

const terminal = new Terminal({ input, output });
Copy

Choose an adapter based on who owns the rendered state:

• DOM appends output to an HTMLElement.
• React exposes output through an external-store hook.
• Svelte exposes output through a reactive array.
• Custom Adapters connect the terminal to another renderer or data store.

You can omit output when you want a headless terminal. The terminal will still record command logs and dispatch output events.
