# Workspaces / Sessions
|
|
|
|
If you are familiar with tmux then you may have used its session functionality
|
|
to manage separate groups of related tmux windows (which map to tabs in wezterm).
|
|
|
|
wezterm doesn't have an exact match to tmux sessions, but does have a similar
|
|
concept known as *Workspaces*.
|
|
|
|
Every [MuxWindow](../config/lua/mux-window/index.md) is associated with a
|
|
workspace, which is just a label.
|
|
|
|
The wezterm GUI is focused on the active workspace, which means that it will
|
|
present a GUI window for each MuxWindow that is present in that workspace.
|
|
|
|
You can spawn windows into differently named workspaces and they won't become
|
|
visible until you set the active workspace to that name.
|
|
|
|
When switching the active workspace, wezterm will swap the the contents of the
|
|
GUI windows with the MuxWindows that belong to the now-focused workspace.
|
|
|
|
The following key assignments are helpful when working with workspaces:
|
|
|
|
* [SwitchToWorkspace](../config/lua/keyassignment/SwitchToWorkspace.md)
|
|
* [SwitchWorkspaceRelative](../config/lua/keyassignment/SwitchWorkspaceRelative.md)
|
|
* Various key assignments or functions that spawn windows also allow specifying
|
|
the workspace name to be used
|
|
* [ShowLauncher](../config/lua/keyassignment/ShowLauncher.md) and
|
|
[ShowLauncherArgs](../config/lua/keyassignment/ShowLauncherArgs.md) will list
|
|
the current set of workspaces and allow switching between them
|
|
|
|
You can pre-define a layout of windows/tabs/panes in specific workspaces by
|
|
using these events:
|
|
|
|
* [gui-startup](../config/lua/gui-events/gui-startup.md)
|
|
* [mux-startup](../config/lua/mux-events/mux-startup.md)
