• Carapace: A multi-shell completion library and binary

  Beyond zprof (https://www.bigbinary.com/blog/zsh-profiling) not really I'm afraid. I did the majority of my zsh-prompt hacking 10 years ago and haven't thought about it since. That snippet could be from anywhere. You could peek at something like zprezto https://github.com/sorin-ionescu/prezto for tips. Fetching git/hg/...

• I think Linux might be the superior platform for gaming at this point.

• Best terminal app for MacOs

  I switched from Oh My Zsh to Prezto years ago. OMZ at the time was excruciatingly slow, but that may have changed. Maybe I should take another look at it, but Prezto has been great. Source: over 1 year ago

• I was frustrated with the way Windows handles Hebrew on Latin keyboards, so I wrote an open-source IME for Hebrew to make it easier! You download it, type in the phonetics, and it gives you the Hebrew.

  I installed iTerm2 and zsh shell with Prezto and I love my command line on OSX I use homebrew to install any tools that are missing and use pyenv to manage my python version (which I also do on Linux) that and the clang/gcc from the OSX command line tools and I pretty much have a full Un*x shell for anything I need to do.

• Reasons to change the default terminal to Warp

  Moreover, there are tools were made on top of those to provide more functionalities, and fill some of the gaps, for instance, oh-my-zsh, Prezto, oh-my-fish, and much more.

• Sweet Shell: With Oh-My-Zsh, SpaceVim, Starship, True Color, and Demo Mode

  I've been meaning to automate my Zsh setup for a long time, and have finally done it based on this awesome GitHub project.

• Zsh users are liars

  Autosuggestions/syntax highlighting/etc: Prezto is a pretty nice framework to start you off.

• Zsh Frameworks

  Prezto. 12.5k GitHub stars. Here's the first serious fork. It began as an extremely talented programmer forking it and spending 1 whole year cleaning up Oh My Zsh's code, fixing performance issues and bugs, cleaning up the code organization and making everything a lot better. Unfortunately, Oh My Zsh's author felt like the changes made it "no longer his code", so he didn't merge it. Prezto then became its own... Source: over 2 years ago

• Bash or Zsh

  For framework I originally went with the massively popular oh-my-zsh, but after trying Prezto, I was sold on it. It's cleaner, more organized and logical - for my brain anyway. It has all the plug-ins I need. Source: almost 3 years ago
