Have a look at awesome Zsh. You can find pretty much everything there. If that’s too much, searching GitHub labels is a good way to find plugins by popularity (aka: number of stars).

I was just looking through this zsh "awesome list" looking for inspiration for stuff to try (i.e. procrastinating) and noticed this commit. Damn that was fast haha!

Speaking as a (fairly jaded) developer with commit access to Prezto, I tend to agree, though many of these monolithic frameworks solved the discovery problem - lots of built-in plugins let people just enable what they wanted rather than having to search around for what they were looking for. Other than large lists like awesome-zsh-plugins there's not a great way to find them, let alone know they're going to be maintained in the future.

If you want to see what plugins are available, you should start with Awesome Zsh Plugins: https://github.com/unixorn/awesome-zsh-plugins

Zsh is a superset of Bash. There's little-to-no learning curve from switching, if you just stick with Bash syntax, and many advantages.

Here is a good overview on Zsh vs. Bash [0].

My favorite Zsh feature is the plugin ecosystem [3]. Oh My Zsh [1] and Starship [2] are awesome.

To take things further, I recommend checking out this curated list of plugins.

No surprise here, if you never heard about zsh go replace you default bash my this shell, it offer a plugin system where the community coded a bunch of very useful tools

You can find specific examples of autoload +X in https://github.com/romkatv/zsh4humans/tree/v5.

zsh4humans (from the creator of Powerlevel10k)

But I like the Powerlevel10k zsh theme with the Lean Style a bit more than that. I'm using it with his configurable zsh setup as my base + zcomet plugin manager. Otherwise they're pretty similar as far as general looks & use goes.

Docs are here and here. I wouldn't recommend trying zsh4humans if you aren't already comfortable with zsh configs. If you do decide to try it, read all tips linked above and follow as many as you can. The default experience is decent but it's far cry from what you can achieve with a personally tailored config.

OMZ is slow, been using zinit since it came out because OMZ and antigen were so slow to start up. Recently I found zsh4humans [1] which benchmarks much better than any other solution, is portable, and has everything I need with sane configs.

If you are trying zsh4humans, make sure to read https://github.com/romkatv/zsh4humans/blob/master/tips.md and follows as many tips as possible.

If you want to try a different preconfigured shell environment, big names are Prezto and zsh4humans. Prezto, like OMZ, comes with a plugin manager built in; zsh4humans does not.
