  1. ohmyzsh

    🙃 A delightful community-driven (with 2,500+ contributors) framework for managing your zsh configuration. Includes 300+ optional plugins (rails, git, macOS, hub, docker, homebrew, node, php, python, etc), 140+ themes to spice up your morning, and an auto-update tool that makes it easy to keep up with the latest updates from the community.

    Project mention: Maruti-Zsh: a Custom, High-Performance Zsh Engine | dev.to | 2026-05-19

    We've all been there. You install Zsh, and the very next recommendation you see online is to install Oh-My-Zsh. For a long time, I did exactly that. But over time, the "magic" of heavy frameworks started to wear thin.
