From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

If you want you can install starship, which provides a lot of the nifty prompt customization I see in other people's zsh configs. I've been using it with bash for a few months now and like it a lot.
I use tide with fish and I personally prefer it over starship.
Thanks for pointing me at tide. I always used the pure prompt but tide looks like pure on steroids.
Also look into the fzf plugin for fish. It’s the other plugin I use.
Thank you. Will take a look as well.
Fzf doesn't need fish, though. I use it with bash.
Sure, fzf is fzf. This is a plugin for fish that integrates fzf with fish.
@Thaurin @zitronen what does it do in addition? For me fzf already replaces some of the keybinds to do history search, directory search, etc. What else is available on the plugin?
