    If you liked legacy antigen or antibody, and want something lightning fast, I recommend antidote (obviously, I'm biased here)

    If you're into this sort of thing, antigen is a package manager for zsh plugins. I really like fzf-tab (I personally only activate fzf on a double-tab, I found it got in the way a bit as the default).

    At some point, perhaps ~10 years ago, I was introduced to ZSH with the venerable Oh My ZSH framework. For me, this was a huge awakening because it taught me about how much shell improvements can impact your life. I gradually evolved my ZSH setup to use package managers like antigen and began to invest more in creature comforts.

    I like the symplicity.

    Have you thought about bundling it up so it can be installed with antigen or oh-my-zsh[0]
