    rvm (probably the most used manager)

    2 projects | /r/metasploit | 2 Jul 2023
    One suggestion would be to setup your install based on a development environment using git and a Ruby version manager like rvm or rbenv to allows you to setup a user controlled gemset and execution path.

    It depends how you install it. If you install it globally then it will work for all your projects. Are you using rvm for ruby version and gemset management? https://rvm.io/

  • Terminal commands I use as a frontend developer
    4 projects | dev.to | 9 Mar 2024
    That’s the minimum terminal setup. You can modify the look and add plugins such as autocompletion to your terminal by installing ohmyzsh and using themes such as powerlevel10k. I am already using them.

  • Weird Color Stuff In The Terminal

    I had just gone through a fun tutorial for setting up oh-my-zsh with a nice color scheme from iterm2colorschemes.com and a decent prompt and I was wondering: can I make my oblique strategy look nice? how can you actually use the colors from your scheme in the output in your cli?
  • Quickest path to a decent zsh setup?
    6 projects | /r/zsh | 5 Dec 2023
    A more robust way to do this would be to add simple wrappers that clone any external Zsh plugins you use regularly and store them in your own $ZSH_CUSTOM. For example, you say you like Powerlevel10k, so make that an OMZ plugin:

  • fish-shell: the user-friendly command-line shell
    24 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 26 Aug 2023
    Am i the only one who feels fish is not worth it despite of hype? Don't get me wrong. I think that fish is really good shell.

    BUT...

    After adding the following plugins to zsh(before you chime in, it's just adding these lines,not anything configuring much. also it auto bootstraps on new install), I found out that fish is no where near configured zsh.

    1) https://github.com/zdharma-continuum/zinit (plugin manager)

    2) https://github.com/zdharma-continuum/fast-syntax-highlightin...

    3) https://github.com/zdharma-continuum/history-search-multi-wo...

    4) https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions

    5) https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-completions

    6) https://github.com/Aloxaf/fzf-tab

    7) any good shell prompt generator like https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k

    For example, I use fzf integration for tab completion. Fish's fzf integration is nowhere as good as that of zsh's. Also, posix compat and almost bash compat of zsh is plus.

    I acknowledge that zsh isn't perfect shell either and I have tried and failed few times in past to switch to fish. If you provide me compelling reason/s to switch to fish, I am all ears.

    To build upon that concept, you can even have your shell prompt display a symbol if you have a backgrounded job. I use https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k and the background_jobs handles it for me.
