Warp is a modern terminal built in Rust with GPU rendering, agent support, and a code-editor-style input. Use this section to see how Warp stacks up against other popular terminals on raw performance and feature coverage.

## How Warp differs

* **Open source under AGPL v3** — Warp's client lives at [`warpdotdev/warp`](https://github.com/warpdotdev/warp). You can read the code, build from source, and contribute. See [Contributing to Warp](https://funcoding.ai/agents/warp/support-and-community/community/contributing/) for the flow.
* **Built-in agents** — Warp ships with the Warp Agent (powered by the Automation Platform) and supports third-party CLI agents like Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini CLI from the same terminal.
* **Modern editing** — Cursor placement, multi-line input, block-based output, and integrated code review work like a text editor instead of a traditional terminal emulator.
* **Cross-platform Rust core** — Warp ships on macOS, Linux, and Windows from a single Rust + GPU-rendered codebase.

## Benchmarks
