Antigen VS Diffee

• Ease of Use
  Antigen simplifies the management of Zsh configurations and plugins with a straightforward syntax, making it accessible for new users.
• Plugin Management
  Antigen offers powerful plugin management capabilities, allowing users to easily load, update, and remove plugins from their Zsh environment.
• Performance Optimization
  With lazy loading capabilities, Antigen can help improve the startup time of the Zsh shell by only loading plugins as needed.
• Compatibility
  Antigen is compatible with a wide range of Zsh plugins, themes, and configurations, providing users with a flexible tool for shell customization.

Possible disadvantages

• Steeper Learning Curve
  Though easier than manual plugin management, learning to fully leverage Antigen's features may require some additional effort from new users.
• Dependency on Git
  Antigen relies on Git to manage plugins, meaning users must have Git installed and may need to understand basic Git commands for manual interventions.
• Potential for Configuration Conflicts
  As with any plugin manager, users might encounter conflicts between plugins or with existing Zsh configurations, requiring troubleshooting.
• Limited Documentation
  Some users might find the official documentation lacking in depth, requiring additional research or community support for advanced configurations.

  Use Antigen. It can use omz plugins but it’s much lighter. Powerlevel10k promt is a nice add-on. It looks bloated but it’s very responsive. Source: over 5 years ago
