I recently installed Zellij as a terminal multiplexer to replace tmux. Trying to navigate between panes was near impossible, even when following the instructions they provide. This short video will show you how to map your keys properly to navigate between panes.

Open settings in iTerm2 by pressing ⌘ , and navigate to Profiles -> Keys.
