Hi. I’ve been using powerlevel10k for a long time, but a few days ago, I decided I wanted to customize it a bit. I opened the .p10k.zsh file, and I was shocked. It’s really massive, with TONS of options. I’ve been digging through for a few hours already, and it’s absolutely amazing how much you can customize it without actually programming anything. I was wondering what other people are using. So my questions are:

  • Do you customize your shell prompt?
  • If yes, do you use some framework or pre-made theme, or do you just configure it the vanilla way in your bashrc/zshrc/…
  • How is your experiences with it so far?
  • Share screenshot of your prompts, please (Sadly, my prompt is currently half done, so I can’t really share it)

blue='\e[34m'
red='\e[31m'
bold='\e[1m'
reset='\e[0m'
PS1='$( status=$?; [ $status -ne 0 ] && echo "[$status] ")\['"$blue""$bold"'\]$\['"$reset"'\] '

if [[ $EUID -eq 0 ]]; then
