pure VS zsh-syntax-highlighting

Beyond zprof (https://www.bigbinary.com/blog/zsh-profiling) not really I'm afraid. I did the majority of my zsh-prompt hacking 10 years ago and haven't thought about it since. That snippet could be from anywhere.

You could peek at something like zprezto https://github.com/sorin-ionescu/prezto or pure https://github.com/sindresorhus/pure for tips.

Fetching git/hg/... info is always slow, so try and speed that up where you can (as to how to do that, uhh... I know my prompt has a dirty-state check nicked from pure for speed reasons). You can also cache any `asdf init zsh` or similar to a file and do the same "run in background" trick so the next shell will have any changes.

The biggest improvement I can remember was dropping zprezto for my own much smaller config, I really did not need much comparatively. Mostly some git info and "good default" options. I use zgenom for a plugin manager but only have 3 plugins, probably I should just dump it and inline the plugins to avoid getting owned one day.

Run p10k configure and choose Lean style. Pure style is inferior in all respects. It exists to make https://github.com/sindresorhus/pure users feel at home.

git clone "$HOME/.zsh/pure" downloads Pure from GitHub. Here we tell git where to download from ("https://github.com/sindresorhus/pure.git") and where to put the downloaded files ("$HOME/.zsh/pure")

I've been using pure theme for a few years and absolutely love it. It shows me everything I need, but doesn't feel cluttered.

It uses 2 lines, which is actually really nice. It gives space to show where you are and git status/branch, while still allowing you to write long commands.

I’ve always been pretty happy with https://github.com/sindresorhus/pure

hey I am trying to install the Pure prompt but I am unable to do so using npm I tried to find an alternative made for oh my zsh method so I tried to do this but it results in an error saying that the pure theme can not be found even though I can see the symlink in the themes folder all I did different from this was to clone it into the themes folder so please help thanks in advance

My favorite for this purpose is pure prompt: https://github.com/sindresorhus/pure

I wasn’t sure about multi line at first, but really digging it now.

https://github.com/sindresorhus/pure has been my go-to for years. Haven't found a reason to change.

Two by far the most popular plugins are zsh-syntax-highlighting and zsh-autosuggestions. They are of high quality and quite useful.
