First Added:September 18, 2026

Zsh is the interactive shell that has been the shell of choice since Apple made it the macOS default. We adopt it with the ohmyzsh configuration framework.

Blurb

Zsh is a shell designed for interactive use, although it is also a powerful scripting language.

Summary

Use Zsh as the login and interactive shell on Mac and Linux. Managing its config through the stowed dotfiles repo keeps every machine identical.

Pairs with ohmyzsh for plugins and themes and Stow for deployment.
