What Hacker News says

I used to use tools like that (tummy, teamocil, etc) but I've since discovered tmux-resurrect. It persists tmux sessions, windows, panes, and a whitelist of non-destructive commands like vim and top across reboots. Now my tmux sessions just organically grow and shrink as necessary and I never worry about having to recreate them. Of course I can see the case for combining both tools. If you have a lot of projects, and/or want REPLs loaded you might not want them sitting around in memory for months if you're not going to use them. It is trivial to get working. Just use tmux plugin manager to install tmux-resurrect and tmux-continuum. https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tpm Example usage in my dotfiles: https://github.com/positron/dotfiles/blob/master/.tmux.conf#...
In Benefits of using tmux – streamlining your development environment
Here's mine: https://github.com/olalonde/dotfiles/blob/master/tmux.conf One tweak I can't live without is having the same key bindings to seamlessly switch between tmux panes and Vim split windows. (https://gist.github.com/mislav/5189704) TPM is also really useful for managing tmux plugins https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tpm. My prefix key is Ctrl-Space. It's very convenient to press on the keyboard, I'm surprised to not see it used more widely (maybe because it's commonly bound to some OS utilities?).
In Tmux 2.0 released
