All examples are based on the rust-plugin-example. Non selectable plugins with permissions If a plugin (like a statusbar) should be non selectable, zellij-tile provides the function set_selectable(). When this function is directly called on plugin initialization, a user won’t be able to grant plugin permissions since the plugin cannot be selected....

This guide will help you get started with developing a plugin for Zellij in Rust. It will guide you through setting up your development environment, creating a new plugin, and playing around to understand how Zellij plugins work. Requirements Make sure you have the following programs installed on your system: Rust with the wasm32-wasi target or rustup Zellij If you have installed rustup, you can install the wasm32-wasi target by running:...
