Interested to try it out. As someone who’s done a good bit of pair programming this way with tmux+vim on a cloud vm I’d love to hear what the advantages are over that kind of setup and the differentiators from tmux or screen.
Cool! Would be especially interested in your feedback as someone who tried this before.
I think a big difference is that you'll get to have two different cursors in the same tab (and are able to focus on different panes).

Nice work!
I've used this feature in GNU Screen and found it very helpful.
I am not sure if there is a similar feature in Tmux.
It is good to see nice, feature-packed alternative since terminal multiplexing is an incredibly useful and powerful tool.

Were you able to get screen to allow two different users to focus on two different panes in the same tab? As in, to see two different cursors and see each other typing in real time?

GNU Screen multiuser mode allows for separate focus, but only one cursor active in a given tab:

It allows for multiple viewers of a single tab, but not mutiple cursors like Zellij has.
GNU Screen does allow multiple users editing in separate tabs in a single session. It was quite useful for devops code reviews of emergency configuration changes on remote servers.
I look forward to trying out Zellij.

That's what I understood as well - thanks for confirming.
