Description
A Termux plugin and Android companion app for adding custom background images to your Termux terminal — with live reload, blur effects, opacity control, and scroll animations.
Overview
Termux Background brings Windows Terminal-style background customization to Termux, allowing you to personalize your Android terminal experience with custom images, visual effects, and real-time configuration updates. The project consists of two components:
- Android Companion App: A user-friendly GUI for selecting and configuring background images.
- CLI Tool: A command-line interface for managing background settings directly from Termux.
Features
Visual Customization
- Custom Background Images: Set PNG or JPEG images as your terminal background.
- Opacity Control: Adjust background transparency to maintain text readability.
- Blur Effect: Apply Gaussian blur for a modern, aesthetic appearance.
- Scroll Animation: Enable smooth scrolling animation for dynamic backgrounds.
- Live Preview: See changes in real-time before applying.
Performance & Usability
- Live Reload: Instantly apply settings without restarting Termux.
- Storage Access Framework: Modern file picker with no legacy storage permissions required.
- Dependency Detection: Automatic verification of required Termux components.
- Safe Operations: Write-protection when dependencies are missing.
- Settings Preservation: Maintains all existing termux.properties configurations.
