Dan's oh-my-zsh config

0. Install a Nerd Font and configure your terminal to use the installed font.

1. Install zsh

   sudo apt install zsh
   

2. Make zsh your default shell

   chsh -s $(which zsh)
   

   Note: if you wish to run this command with sudo, you have to specify the current user:

   sudo chsh -s $(which zsh) $USER
   

3. Clone this repo with all submodules to ~

   git clone --recurse-submodules git@github.com:dstockhammer/zsh.git ~/zsh
   

4. Create a .zshrc that references the configuration in this repository

   echo 'source $HOME/zsh/.zshrc' > ~/.zshrc
   

5. Switch to zsh and enjoy 🌟🦄🌟

   zsh
   

   Alternatively, if you're already using zsh, completely restart your shell. (Do not just reload your config with source ~/.zshrc)

6. Update ohmyzsh and all themes/plugins:

    ./scripts/update-deps.sh

Browser integration

To configure WSL to open browser URLs in Windows, you can use the wslview utility, which is a part of the wslu package.

sudo apt install wslu

Configure wslview to open your browser of choice in Windows. Here is an example for Firefox:

wslview -r $(wslpath -au 'C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe')
