This should probably point to the GitHub repository itself: https://github.com/GitSquared/edex-ui
Unlike the article, the GitHub repository mentions the Windows and macOS releases.

HA! What a cool little toy. Now this brings back some fun memories: http://blog.blhack.me/static/bb.png
Does anybody else remember running the "bb" demo on knoppix back in the day? Was so cool that they included that with the distro. Blew my mind as a teenager!
I know some people are saying how this isn't super useful and all sorts of stuff. Nonsense! It's fun, and fun is almost always useful. Can't wait to install this on some machines at the hackerspace.

just knoppix itself is nostalgia'ing me pretty hard..
Haha! This really works. I downloaded the MacOS release and tried it out. As they said, it used a lot of CPU (25%), but it looks great. I'm going to pull this out the next time I need to impress some kids with my job.
I occasionally like using a very different terminal just to break out of mental ruts. In the past I’ve used Cool Retro Term for its funky looks.

Why does it need Chromium?

It's made via Electron, which utilizes Chromium.
I see, thanks. That sounds like a major overhead for a terminal.
I'd agree if this was made for everyday use. Luckily, it's not. ;)
I want the UI from Star Trek The Next Generation
Deal with it.
Great way of encouraging participation.

this could be used to convince some poorly impoverished mind that you are uber ultra elite, or that the $89.95 they paid for the "l337hax0r" software was worth it. for a short time at least. This is similar to a lot of movie/tv depicted GUIs being surfed by the infamous likes of penelope garcia!
