• ohmyzsh

  559 168,701 9.5 Shell

  🙃 A delightful community-driven (with 2,300+ 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 so that makes it easy to keep up with the latest updates from the community.

  

Here we're installing not only the base libraries needed to run rbenv & ruby-build (the rbenv plugin that will actually install Ruby), but also ZShell and its famous extension, oh-my-zsh. This offers some nice things such as syntax & branch highlighting, and it is completely optional. If you'd like to keep your bash as it is, just skip this step (however, note you'll have to add rbenv to their bash correspondent instead of zshell init files!).
