fish shell VS Starship (Shell Prompt)

We're using bash as our terminal shell for now (it is standard in many distros) but it is not the only one out there. If you want to test out zsh, fish or oh-my-zsh, you will see that there are a few differences and the features are usually the main differentiator. Try that, poke around. Source: 5 months ago

Before actual update, confirm your shell is independent on python. It is important when you use fish:. - Source: dev.to / 8 months ago

> As for why I don't think that's their goal, just look at https://fishshell.com/ not one of the listed features requires them to drop POSIX compatibility entirely. “Sensible scripting” is right there. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

This is the default behaviour of fish[1], by the way! [1]: https://fishshell.com. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

Last suggestion? Give fish a go. Its amazing. https://fishshell.com/. Source: 10 months ago

Agreed, I use this in conjunction with Starship [1], both initialized specifically for Fish in the config. I love this shell so much. [1] - https://starship.rs/. - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

Starship is the new spaceship, yo https://starship.rs/. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

Recently, I moved off from oh-my-zsh after many users, to vanilla zsh with https://starship.rs, mainly due to the loading speed (used https://github.com/romkatv/zsh-bench to measure the speed). Still wanting to try out fish and hopefully soon! - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

It seems like the Rust community is quite happy to support alternative shells. I’ve seen couple of projects, now, that support way more esoteric shells than I would expect, like ’xonsh’. Starship (https://starship.rs/) immediately comes to mind. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago
