A nice terminal experience starts with the shell

We don't need to spend a lot of time here. There are a ton of options, again, but this time I will make a strong suggestion.

Strongly suggest zsh

• its default on mac, something at least they have done right
• its easy to install on ubuntu

sudo apt install zsh
chsh -s $(which zsh)

But what is a shell?

The Wizard explained the shell once to me in the following way. He gets banned from twitch regularly, so..... that link is to his youtube.

# you meant ls -la
ls -;a

• Don't forget to draw :)
• Do the ps -o pid,ppid= -C zsh example

Terminal vs Shell

Shell can be great

A lot of point counter point talk on the internet for bash vs zsh vs tsh vs bsh vs fish

• I am just going to give you what I like

OhMyZsh

YES I ADMIT IT.

• How to install

curl -L https://raw.github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/master/tools/install.sh | sh

So what do I get out of oh-my-zsh?

• Open up .zshrc and go to lines plugins

Personal Opinion

• Choose something
• Learn about it to some small amount
• Get good at core utils
• Take advantage of already built tools that are amazing.

Apply what you have learned

Lets say you decide, yes I want zsh and oh my zsh. What should you do?

PUT IT IN YOUR ANSIBLE

Fun side note

I actually forgot to do it for myself and so when I originally executed this I didn't have zsh-autosuggestions installed. Took a moment to figure it out.
