Blocks alone are worth the switch.
Each command and its output is a navigable block. Scroll, copy, share, re-run. iTerm2 is a giant text buffer. Warp is a structured tool.

Warp is the terminal rebuilt with modern UX: blocks for command/output pairs, AI for command suggestions, real workflows you can share with your team. The 2024 Warp Drive (cloud sync) and 2025 macOS-to-Linux expansion broadened reach. Trade-off: it's a closed-source product with cloud account required for some features, which puts off purist terminal users. Best for engineers tired of bash + vimrc and willing to use a modern alternative.

Workflows for team onboarding cut a week off.
New engineer joins, runs `wd setup` workflow, has the dev environment in 20 minutes. Used to take a day. Warp Drive workflows are the unlock.

I want it to be open-source.
The product is great. The closed-source + cloud account requirement is the drawback. Sticking with iTerm2 + zsh until the licensing changes.
