aqua VS zimfw

Instead I use https://github.com/aquaproj/aqua.

In this post, I describe the update of aqua in 2022.

Aqua is a packaging tool that I'm testing out. Very interesting conceptually, and if you like chezmoi (I use it, too), then I think you'll find it worth a peek.

For the version control, we recommend aqua.

More on topic, I use zim, but mostly write my own plugins/modules/ad-hoc/post-hoc scripts

I’m using zimfw Flexible and fast. https://zimfw.sh

I was using oh-my-zsh as my plugin manager for a long time and startup speed was probably much slower than fish (although normal usage wasn't) because omz enables a lot of features and plugins I didn't need/use. I went to prezto and then antigen as plugin manager and for the last couple years I have been using zimfw, which is great compromise between a plugin manager that can add and update plugins, and literally just generating a small bootstrap script that just sources the plugins and otherwise is entirely out of the way.

zsh with zim framework

switch to zsh isntead of bash and use pre prepared framework for it, I like zim zsh

I moved most of my config over to zim -- been pretty happy for the most part. I see that zinit got forked, which makes me happy, that was a mess and what made me look elsewhere. Hopefully the new committers can do it well.
