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:

Bat is a cat clone with syntax highlighting and Git integration. It has helped me iimmensely when I want to view the contents of a file. It is a drop in replacement for cat and it has syntax highlighting for a lot of languages. It also has a pager mode which is enabled by default when output is piped to another command. It also has a lot of other features which you can read about in the documentation. In my case I have aliased it to cat in my .fish config file.
