yasb VS oh-my-posh

What an absolute mess. In the meantime I'm glad to have seen alternatives like yasb[1] popping up.

You can use yasb to show a status bar, similar to polybar. Follow instructions on yasb to set up.

I used yasb : https://github.com/denBot/yasb

I develop and maintain a twm for Windows and one of the things that I implemented after many requests was a subscription service to allow other applications to listen to and respond to events emitted by the window manager. This allowed people to make stuff like status bars that integrate with and respond to the window manager's state changes.

A push-based event subscription API that allows other applications to subscribe to the latest komorebi events. This is in particular super useful if you want to write your own statusbar. yasb is a great example of a status bar written in Python that subscribes to the latest events from komorebi to always show the most up-to-date information about workspaces and application windows to the user.

# Download the correct binary for Linux (replace the URL with the latest version if needed) wget https://github.com/JanDeDobbeleer/oh-my-posh/releases/latest/download/posh-linux-amd64 -O oh-my-posh # Make the binary executable chmod +x oh-my-posh # Move the binary to a directory in your PATH sudo mv oh-my-posh /usr/local/bin/

Tip 2: Use oh-my-posh to customize your terminal prompt and make working in your terminal even more fun.

Initializes oh-my-posh and sets a prompt theme

I use starship (alternative: oh my posh) to get a fancy prompt. Both work on Linux, MacOS and Windows (including WSL), so you can have a consistent prompt no matter where you are.

oh-my-posh for Powershell on any platform.

It's the entire image in the middle. They're using tmux as their terminal. The logo and information is from a neofetch. The information at the bottom looks like it's from Oh My Posh but something similar could be done using something else like Starship.
