What is the best plugin manager in your opinion?
There's no shortage of zsh plugin managers. Most of them are pretty much the same. You either pick one of them, or build your own (like I did: zed) and call it a day 😂

What if I told you you don't really need a Zsh plugin manager?
Here is link number 2 - Previous text "zed"
- zed - yet another plugin manager for zsh. Nothing fancy, nothing new. Just does the basic stuffs - pulls, compiles and loads the plugins... does some completion stuffs. Fairly simple implementation with about 300 LOC. Why? 'cause I used zinit before and it vanished recently... so why not? 🤷🏼♂️
