My Terminal

The applied terminal varies by the host OS:

Additionally, I have included my NeoVim (text editor) config which is OS agnostic.

This repo only does not list my IDE: VS Code settings.

🍎 Warp

Warp - my main terminal for macOS.

🎨 Appearance

Warp

  • Theme: Fancy Dracula
  • Prompt: Shell prompt (PS1)
  • Font: JetBrains Mono 11

👨‍💻 Zsh settings

  • Framework: Oh My Zsh
  • Prompt: Starship
    • If you have installed conda, I suggest to disable printing environment names, as they will be displayed already by Starship: conda config --set changeps1 False

Plugins

Oh My Zsh plugins:

External plugins:

Shell aliases

Note

Since 2024/01/07, I keep my core text-expansion config in my-espanso-config.

I recommend keeping aliases in the ~/.aliases file, and then source this file in your respective profile file through source ~/.aliases. Keep in mind that a bunch of aliases is already configured through the aforementioned Oh My Zsh plugins, which you can quickly check using the aliases plugin.

general:

  • alias aliases='code ~/.aliases' ← quickly open ~/.aliases in VS Code
  • alias lisl='eza -hla --icons' ← better ls with eza
  • alias list='eza -hlas time --icons' ← better ls with eza (ordered by time)
  • alias treee='br -c :pt' ← better tree with broot
  • alias path='echo -e ${PATH//:/\\n}' ← show all directories in the PATH variable, one per line
  • alias ports='netstat -a | grep -i "listen"' ← show all open ports and the processes using them
  • alias reload='source ~/.zshrc' ← reload the configuration file for zsh
  • alias zshrc='code ~/.zshrc' ← quickly open ~/.zshrc in VS Code

kubernetes:

  • alias k8s-get-pods='kubectl get pods --all-namespaces' ← get the list of all pods
  • alias k8s-get-services='kubectl get services --all-namespaces' ← get the list of all services

macOS:

  • alias cleanup="find . -type f -name '*.DS_Store' -ls -delete" ← find and delete all .DS_Store files in the current directory and all subdirectories

functions:

  • check if a website is up or down:

    function website-status(){
  curl -Is "$1" | head -n 1
}

  • open finder in the current folder:

    function openfinder(){
    open -a Finder "$1";
}

Shell tools

You can find a list of my recommended shell tools in my other repo.

# !! Contents within this block are managed by 'conda init' !!
eval "$('/c/Users/pawel/miniconda3/Scripts/conda.exe' 'shell.bash' 'hook')"

🐧 Neovim

Neovim - my main text editor used within the terminal of any OS.

🎨 Appearance

Neovim

👨‍💻 Setup

  1. Make sure you have set up the local terminal of your OS (ideally as in this repo).

  2. Follow the installation steps of Neovim and NvChad.

  3. Post installation steps to set up the config files:

    cd ~/.config/nvim
mkdir lua/custom
cp examples/init.lua lua/custom/init.lua
cp examples/chadrc.lua lua/custom/chadrc.lua

  4. Edit ~/.config/nvim/lua/custom/chadrc.lua (apply chadracula theme and enable dashboard):

    local M = {}

M.ui = {
  theme = "chadracula",
}

M.plugins = {
  user = {
      ["goolord/alpha-nvim"] = {
        disable = false,
      },
  },
}

return M

  5. Start Neovim with nvim and do :PackerSync. You can also display the file explorer with CTRL + N.

  6. Optionally, apply Neovim in your IDE, such as in VS Code through the VSCode Neovim extension.
