One underrated — at least IMO — tmux feature are popups. For example, I have `Ctrl-a g` mapped to open a `gitu` [1] popup with a 90% window size. Once I'm done, the popup will just automatically close and I'm back at my regular terminal window.

[1] gitu is a pretty close approximation of Emacs' Magit as a CLI tool: https://github.com/altsem/gitu

When I have to use VSCode for some reason or another, I trigger `gitu` via `Alt-x g` in a terminal editor, split to the right.

A screenshot of the VSCode key binding:

{
"key": "alt+x g",
"command": "runCommands",
"args": {
"commands": [
"workbench.action.splitEditorRight",
"workbench.action.createTerminalEditor",
{
"command": "workbench.action.terminal.sendSequence",
"args": { "text": "gitu\n" }
}
]
}
