Tools of Titans

To work faster and become a comand line power user we are going to use 3 tools: the software iterm2, the configuration terminal framework oh-my-zsh and the command line interface tool gh.

iterm2 - iterm2.com

iTerm2 brings the terminal into the modern age with features you never knew you always wanted.

iTerm2 is a replacement for Terminal. It works on Macs only.

  • install iterm2
brew install --cask iterm2
  • change the color scheme, open the settings and go to Profiles > Colors > Color Presets

iterm2 custom colors

You can select a color scheme from the list or import a custom one.

oh-my-zsh

Oh My Zsh is a delightful, open source, community-driven framework for managing your Zsh configuration.

It comes bundled with thousands of helpful functions, helpers, plugins, themes, and a few things that make you shout...

oh-my-zsh

macOS

Install it with:

sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/master/tools/install.sh)"

Linux and windows

Installing ZSH wiki

Changing theme

omz theme list
omz theme set THEME_NAME

Install plugins

ZSH allows you to extend built-in functionality by adding plugins.

To enable a plugin, you need to list it in your .zshrc file and then enable it.

omz plugin list
omz plugin enable PLUGIN_NAME
omz plugin disable PLUGIN_NAME

Here is an example of a .zshrc file with some useful plugins I use:

# Useful oh-my-zsh plugins
plugins=(git gitfast common-aliases zsh-syntax-highlighting history-substring-search zsh-autosuggestions zsh-z)

gh - cli.github.com

gh is GitHub on the command line. It brings pull requests, issues, and other GitHub concepts to the terminal next to where you are already working with git and your code.

brew install gh

Note: for gitlab users, there is a similar tool called glab.
