topgrade VS ohmyzsh

I don't understand why more people aren't aware of this: https://github.com/topgrade-rs/topgrade -I use it for Linux and Windows.

To upgrade all at once I use topgrade.

For what its; worth, I love me some topgrade for keeping my stuff fresh.

$ topgrade Due to a design issue with notify-send it could be that topgrade hangs when it's finished. If this is the case on your system add the --skip-notify flag to the topgrade command or set skip_notify = true in the config file. If you don't want this message to appear any longer set display_preamble = false in the config file.

The ncurses tui is nice, maybe you can make a wrapper with ideas from topgrade and/or Wingetui

You might want to take a look at https://github.com/topgrade-rs/topgrade

Consider adding topgrade. Yeah, I know gnome-software is supposed to be the preferred way now, but I'd still rather update my system from the command line and topgrade will update everything.

Once you have it installations, you can keep it up-to-date with https://github.com/topgrade-rs/topgrade

If you are not using oh-my-zsh, you are missing out on some amazing plugins. One feature most people wish the terminal had is autocompletion. With the zsh-autosuggestions plugin, your terminal will autocomplete most commands and remember previous ones.

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.

Somewhat related is "Oh My ZSH!" which is basically zsh on steroids, it's always one of the first things I install on a new computer. It gives things like new colors, themes, plugins, and more. Highly recommend you check it out.

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?

After this you going to visit Oh-My-Zsh which is where the magic will happen.

after automating my dotfiles, I want to automate my installations, after that I want to make my terminal easier to use so I add OMZ with many plugins, after that, I try to automate the backup of my setting on my Gnome but failed, then try using git-lfs for my big files but it turned out to be idiotic moves, bla bla bla many try and fail.
