From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

sorTTY is a lightweight, minimal, and beautiful program to visualize sorting algorithms in your Unix terminal / TTY, made possible with ncurses.

It currently has 14 unique sorting algorithms to choose from and is very customizable.

You can also try it without installing (instructions are in the github page)
