Fish is a acronyn for friendly interactive shell. It is a smart and user friendly shell for Unix-like operating systems like Linux. There are a lot of features that make it stand out from other shells like bash. It has a lot of features like autosuggestions, syntax highlighting, tab completions and a lot more. You can read more about it in the documentation. I have been using it for a while now and I it configured to my liking. In terms of plugins I use fisher to manage my plugins. I have a couple of plugins that I use on a daily basis. I have listed them below:
-
InfluxDB

Project mention: This school district in Indiana spends $10.3K per student. Less than half what is spent on Baltimore public schools | reddit.com/r/Damnthatsinteresting | 2023-02-16
and thats why I love ConEmu
-
FTXUI
Features: - Functional style. Inspired by [1] and React - Simple and elegant syntax (in my opinion). - Support for UTF8 and fullwidth chars (→ 测试). - No dependencies. - Cross platform. Linux/mac (main target), Windows (experimental thanks to contributors), - WebAssembly. - Keyboard & mouse navigation. Operating systems: - linux emscripten - linux gcc - linux clang - windows msvc - mac clang
Depends on which level of "UI" you want. Personally I like https://github.com/ArthurSonzogni/FTXUI , but if you want to do those old TUI things then probably the (n/pd)curses libraries.

musikcube
a cross-platform, terminal-based music player, audio engine, metadata indexer, and server in c++
Project mention: Best option for Raspberry Pi 4 Music Streaming Server? | reddit.com/r/selfhosted | 2023-02-05If it's just for music and you dig the look of TUI apps then musikcube has built-in server functionality. You install it on both the server and clients but keep the library on the server. It's light and works well, including for giant collections. There's apparently an android app too, musikdroid, but I haven't tried it. I haven't tried the windows or mac client apps either, so I can't vouch for any of them, but it's great on linux.
-
console
This is a modified version of Console 2 for a better experience under Windows Vista/7/8/10 and a better visual rendering. (by cbucher)
Project mention: Command prompt always opens in the upper right corner | reddit.com/r/Windows10 | 2023-05-18Use console wrapper that can save last position (e.g. https://github.com/cbucher/console), then create an alias for cmd.exe to it in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths.

neo
Simulates the digital rain from "The Matrix" (CMatrix clone with 32-bit color and Unicode support) (by st3w)
cmatrix? I see that everywhere, but think that there are better alternatives. Better as in nicer visuals that are closer to what can be seen in the movie. For example: tmatrix, fakesteak, neo and many more.
