ZSH

$ sudo pacman -S zsh

Configuration framework

I use zprezto as my configuration framework. It setups some options by default and makes my life easier :).

$ git clone --recursive https://github.com/sorin-ionescu/prezto.git "${XDG_DATA_HOME:-$HOME/.local/share}/zprezto"

Fonts

$ sudo pacman -S powerline-fonts

$ yay -S ttf-meslo-nerd-font-powerlevel10k

Plug-ins

All zsh plugins are installed by zplug, which is a plugin manager. Since zprezto searches for modules under ZPREZTO_HOME/contrib, I have set the 'ZPLUG_REPOS' variable to it so all plugins will be installed and automatically loaded by zprezto.

$ mkdir -p "${XDG_DATA_HOME:-$HOME/.local/share}/zprezto/contrib"

$ ZPLUG_HOME="${XDG_DATA_HOME:-$HOME/.local/share}/zplug" curl -sL --proto-redir -all,https https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zplug/installer/master/installer.zsh | zsh

Reopen your terminal emulator and install zsh plugins:

$ zplug install
