- multiple tabs
- panes
- Unicode and UTF-8 character support
- a GPU accelerated text rendering engine
- themes (or use customized themes by you)

It's very flexible and very configurable.
On top of Windows Terminal, we can have Powerline for a pretty prompt. Microsoft has the tutorial that explains how to setup Powerline, which includes integration with GIT, with Posh-Git and Oh-My-Posh.
