With that I also use this. This is a fish shell tool for jumping different directories with two word command. For example, I have a very nested directory that I want to visit and from there I need to go to another nested directory and let's name the first directory as portfolio and my terminal config. Now for that I use the z tool and using the z tool I can create aliases for that directory.
Now you can also customize the prompt itself using a config file. I have my config here or you can read the starship docs here.
