Terminal Setup

Unix shell and Framework installation

Install any of the available shell

brew install --cask iterm2 
brew install --cask wezterm
brew install --cask alacritty

Instead of using the Mac default Bash shell, preferred here is zsh with multiple plugin support.

• Install latest version of zsh using brew and verify the version.

brew install zsh
zsh --version

with zsh installed, the default profile will be from .zshrc file, where customized profiles can be added

• Make zsh as system’s default shell

chsh -s $(which zsh)

• Verify:

echo $SHELL

expected result: /bin/zsh

• Install oh-my-zsh using https://ohmyz.sh/#install

Install Powerline 10k

git clone https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k.git $ZSH_CUSTOM/themes/powerlevel10k

Run either

p10k configure

OR

Edit ~/.zshrc and set ZSH_THEME="powerlevel10k/powerlevel10k".

Eza instead of ls

brew install eza

Standard plugins are at $ZSH/plugins/ or ~/.oh-my-zsh/plugins

Custom plugins may be added to $ZSH_CUSTOM/plugins/ or ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/plugins

Pluions can be added to the .zshrc file lile below
