Prettify Dev Terminal Setup

Oh my posh

Oh My Posh is a prompt theme engine for any shell, including Zsh. It allows you to customize your terminal prompt with themes and segments.

brew install jandedobbeleer/oh-my-posh/oh-my-posh
echo 'eval "$(oh-my-posh init zsh)"' >> .zshrc
echo 'OH_MY_POSH_THEME="kali"' >> .zshrc

autosuggestions

Zsh autosuggestions provide command suggestions based on your history and current input, enhancing your command line experience.

brew install zsh-autosuggestions
# To activate the autosuggestions, add the following at the end of your .zshrc:
source $(brew --prefix)/share/zsh-autosuggestions/zsh-autosuggestions.zsh

Aliases

Create a file ~/.bash_aliases and add your aliases there, or directly in .zshrc.

# Alias definitions.
# You may want to put all your additions into a separate file like
# ~/.bash_aliases, instead of adding them here directly.
# See /usr/share/doc/bash-doc/examples in the bash-doc package.

if [ -f ~/.bash_aliases ]; then
    . ~/.bash_aliases
fi

alias zshconfig='nano ~/.zshrc'
alias ls='eza -la --group-directories-first --icons'

Minor packages

fzf

Fuzzy finder for command line, useful for searching files, history, etc.
