→ Oh My Posh ∞

I had heard about Oh my Posh several years ago. It was in the context of Oh my Zsh ¹ Oh My Posh was its Powershell cousin.

Since (AFAIK) Powershell is on Windows, and I haven’t used Windows in so many years, I had no use of it.

Then few days ago, I came across XeroLinux ²

The shell prompt looked very nice. I had assumed it must be starship which was my prompt engine till that point. But looking at XeroLinux’s github, I could not find starship.toml but I found Oh my Posh config instead.

Could my eyes be deceiving me? 😄

So I searched, and it turns out it is (now?) shell agnostic Prompt engine.

The site has install instructions for macOS as well as Linux (and Windows of course 😄) It supports a lot of different shells, including zsh. They also have good documentation about how to integrate it with different shells. I used the one for zsh

Currently, I’m using XeroLinux’s config almost as-is. That is what I wanted anyway 😄

I wish I could post screenshots of my terminal, but it does not need to be my terminal. Since I use the same config as XeroLinux, and since Oh-my-Posh is OS and shell agnostic, why not check XeroLinux screenshot directly ?

Check the beautiful prompt near the bottom of the terminal window. 👆
