Alacritty

Alacritty terminal emulator focused on simplicity and performance.]] The performance goal means it should be faster than any other terminal emulators available. The simplicity goal means it doesn't have features such as tabs or splits (which can be better provided by a window manager).

Alacritty is written in Rust and GPU-accelerated using OpenGL.
