Making Your Terminal Awesome

The tools we use as developers make us more effective (or at least hopefully faster) developers. So why not spend some time to make one of the most common dev tools much more useful? Here's a way to give any terminal app a personalized and awesome experience (fwiw I use the default app included with macOS). Features covered will be the following:

  • a super informative and customizable prompt
  • per-directory prompt customization
  • automatic switching of Node.js versions (easily extended to any run-time)
  • better auto complete and history
  • optional "command done" chime
