That should be all you need to make your terminal look exactly like mine 😀.

#CUSTOMIZE ITERM2 INSTALL#

Install powerlevel10k zsh theme - basically clone the repo and modify the ~/.zshrc file to update the ZSH_THEME.Install plugins like zsh-autosuggestions, zsh-syntax-highlighting (basically you clone the repo and then add the plugin to the list of plugins in your ~/.zshrc file.Install oh-my-zsh (run the curl command).I believe the only other special things that I have in the profile (other than colors) is the ability to use OPTION+arrow keys to to go left / right to the end of strings, OPTION+SHIFT+arrow keys to highlight entire strings, and OPTION+Backspace to delete an entire strings.In iTerm, go to: Preferences > Profile, you can use the + to import the iterm2-profile.json profile.

Download my iTerm profile as a json file and import into iTerm.Install iTerm2: brew install -cask iterm2.I wrote up these instructions for my co-worker, but I thought I would re-purpose them into a blog post that I can share with others as well! iTerm2, oh-my-zsh, and powerlevel10k theme setup I was going to link them to my Powerlevel10k Zsh Theme in GitHub Codespaces, but then I realized: this is for setting up a development environment in Codespaces, not so much locally.

Hint: I do! I also came from a Windows background and only first started using macOS for work in late 2019. They had asked if I had any tips on setting up your local development environment. Obviously, that warning is there for a reason, so it’s really your call if you want to do this.A new team member had just joined my team at GitHub and it was their first time using macOS as the primary work machine. If you add “pwsh” to that list of applications, the terminal won’t ask you for confirmation if you want to close the window. To make this window go away, and save you another five keystrokes, look at the bottom of the “Shell” tab of the “Preferences” window, in the “Ask when closing” section. In fact, you may even want to put “ pwsh exit” (without the quotes) in the “Run command” field – this will terminate the bash shell automatically when the pwsh process ends, so typing “exit” in Powershell will close the window.Īnother slight annoyance is that when you want to close the window, technically the “pwsh” process is still running (unless you type “exit”), so you’ll get a friendly confirmation dialog that you’ll have to deal with: The “Run inside shell” checkbox needs to be enabled! You can set a custom command to start when you open a terminal window with this profile: enter pwsh in the “Run command” field at the top, and now, every time you open a window with this profile, it starts Powershell Core automatically, saving you all of five keystrokes. What you can do is, you can create a separate profile for your Powershell Core stuff, customize all those colors, fonts, and what-not.

You probably already know that you can customize the Mac Terminal to death, and you may even have noticed that you can create different profiles for different purposes: So wouldn’t it be cool if we could launch our Powershell Core in the stylish blue world of bliss that Windows users have become so accustomed to? Setting up a color profile The first thing you’ll notice is that this doesn’t really play well if you’re using a white background, as the output is often light grey, yellow or even white.

If you didn’t know, Powershell isn’t exclusive to Windows anymore – you can actually run a basic set of Powershell features, called Powershell Core, on Mac OS and Linux as well.īy default, running the “pwsh” command just starts Powershell Core in a regular terminal window. I just recently had the opportunity to sit with Aaron Nelson and go through some really cool Powershell features, and I’m certainly going to spend time getting to know Powershell a lot better.
