How to add icons to iTerm2?
Question
I've been looking into making my terminal more visually expressive. So far I've found , and learnt how to import themes and customize color schemes, but I was wondering how people get these cool icons and visual modifications as seen in these images. Can anyone provide me with some useful links?
La solution
The first prompt you show a picture of looks like a customized version of a powerline oh-my-zsh theme. It requires oh-my-zsh. There is also a version that supports bash, zsh, and fish.
To use those, you need a Powerline-patched font.
Your second screenshot comes from dracula-theme, a color scheme and prompt for lots of different editors plus oh-my-zsh.
Personally, I would not recommend oh-my-zsh, as in my experience it was kind of slow and heavy. I created my own bash prompt using Powerline symbols, but milkbikis/powerline-shell is probably the best one to use.
Autres conseils
oh-my-zsh is an open source, community-driven framework for managing your Zsh configuration.
It comes bundled with a ton of helpful functions, helpers, plugins, themes, and a few things that make you shout…
Consider installing Powerlevel9k, a popular and highly customizable terminal theme for the shell Zsh.
