Hey guys! Wanted to point out that you have to be using the zsh shell which runs by default in macOS Catalina or later for this tutorial to work. To check if you are using zsh, you can run “echo $0” in your terminal and the output will tell you the name of your shell. If you are looking for the “.zshrc” file within Finder, navigate to your home folder and press “Command” + “Shift” + “.” to see your hidden files. Also, if you already had a zshrc file setup with specific configurations and follow this tutorial and they get overwritten, Oh-My-Zsh will save your original zshrc file here: “~/.zshrc.pre-oh-my-zsh”. To undo everything you can use: “uninstall_oh_my_zsh”. Hope that helps!
never wrote a line of code, or used terminal in my life - until today. Complete beginning starting out, and this was really easy to follow. Thank you for the supporting website with step by step instructions and the commands to copy. Great work
Before I watched the video, I knew this would be something like "use iterm2, zsh, and powerlevel10k". The plugins in the end were awesome, will be using all three of those
"If you can't explain it simply you don't understand it well enough" - Well sir you explained it as if it was 1+1=2, which goes to show that you know what you are talking about! Thanks a lot for this video, very useful and extremely easy to follow, understand and implement. 5 starts :)
This was the best video which taught everything about setting up iterm2 in just 1 video especially for a beginner like me small things like linking all the commands and everything it does for future reference was a great way. Thanks for this amazing tutorial, looking forward to watching your videos on setting up neovim and its workflows.
Hey! Really happy to hear that! Thank you for your feedback and I’m glad I could help! I’m currently working on the neovim video, taken me longer than I had planned but hoping to get it done very soon.
I know this an older video and you have a more recent one, but I found this one first, I just finished it and it was so incredibly helpful! I am brand new and just started learning to code. You explained all of the steps brilliantly and my terminal is SO much easier to look at and work in. Thank you!
Thanks alot Sir! Your videos help us alot to be more productive on the machine! Just watched the yabai and iterm2 video and setup my new mac, loving the feel all because of you!
Oh, one other thing: an alternative to the right arrow key for zsh command completion is the Emacs key equivalent CTRL-f. By my lights this is preferable to right arrow because you don't have to move your right hand out of position. (The fact that Apple preserved the ability to have Emacs CTRL- command line shortcuts in the terminal was one of the things that motivated my switch from Linux to OS X a couple decades ago!)
thanks for that comment! I remember reading it a few months ago and not really doing anything with it, but trying to hit the right arrow all the time was really annoying. I've been trying to search for a solution but I couldn't find one and then remembered your comment and just came back to this video. Also, this video is great btw, thanks Josean, I'm enjoying this iterm setup. I tried following your nvim video but ran into some issues with changes since you made the video and because I'm new to nvim it was kinda difficult to follow and understand everything in the setup. I may have also had an issue because I already tried to install the nvim kickstarter setup BEFORE trying to follow along with your video, and maybe there were some issues with compatibility of those two setups. Not sure if that's an issue but maybe explaining how to get to a base setup before following along with your nvim setup might be helpful. I don't' know a lot about that setup though so I could be wrong. Was just a bit frustrating.
Really appreciate the video. Been doing more shell work and wanted something a bit more comfortable than Terminal. This is great! Would love to hear if you've used others for any time what pros and cons are of others. This has really leveled up my experience though :)
I appreciate this video, as my iTerm setup was a bit stale, and this gave me ideas for getting it better customized to make like easier for me. Solid video.
Thank you for this, I do everything as you said in the video with a little tweak of customization on my own and it looks so much more pleasing to my eyes than ever. Thank for making my life less miserable looking at the terminal.
I do a lot of work in a bash terminal, and your video will make the experience a lot better. Thank you for the supporting link with the command you used. I look forward to seeing your other videos! 👍
Excellent video! I finally got my first MBP M2, and this was icing on the cake! I've always loved the command line, and now I love it even more. Nice Job! Thanks!
Awesome video. I always want to use colors to my terminal and this was very easy you made this al together. Thanks for explaining each step and providing us a documented steps as well. 👍
Thanks for the video. What a fun way to fancy up my command line. I used your instructions to fancy up my Ubuntu command line too, i spend a lot of time via SSH on remote command lines and this makes them much more useable as well. Great idea!
Most underrated YT channel. Congrats and thanks for the very detailed videos that make me want to customize, use the terminal, vim etc more. And I'm absolutely not someone with an IT/CS background !
@@joseanmartinez Are you aware of any issue with Mason ? it keeps failing (except for python LSP). E.g. CSS-lsp returns a failure message env: node: No such file or directory spawn: npm failed with exit code 127 and signal 0. thanks !
@@jean-charlescouturier5535 Hmm, I’d download node. Looks like it’s trying to use npm to download the lsps. Use “brew install node” and then check if the issue with mason is resolved.
@@joseanmartinez you are legend. Worked like a charm ! thanks a lot for the super quick reply ! Also, would you be able to make a series about nvim setup for python by any chance ? cheers
@@jean-charlescouturier5535 Awesome! Happy to hear it fixed the issue! I’m mostly a javascript/typescript developer so I don’t think I’ll be making a series on python soon, but I would check out “jedi_language_server” for a possible lsp and “black” for a formatter. Haven’t tried them, but could possibly work well.
Thank you so much for this video, I wanted to do this with my terminal lonnnnnng time ago, and this is the first video that I really like and it works, really appreciate it, new follower here 😀
Hey! I really appreciate that! Thanks for the awesome feedback. Really cool you’re using Astro Vim. Currently working on the vim configuration video, hoping to get it done soon!
Ayy, I always wondered how they got their terminals to look that fancy! Never had the time to figure it out, until I came across this video! :D The auto-suggestion feature is really nice too!
Your explanations are super clear. I followed it to the tee and it worked perfectly. I would suggest doing an explanation on the functions of each of the packages you've used for clarity for newbies like me.
I am so sorry to ask this question... I do have vision problem when you at 3:22 when you edit the file to powerlevel10k how do you save the file. I can't see what command you use.
Hey! Found out through another video that you need to go to a new line and type ":wqa", then you will get back to the picture where he writes "source ~/.zshrc" :)
I just did powerlevel10k on my Mac and it is pretty cool. Did it also on the Raspberry Pi looks cool. I like the way the script went through a load of screens to test and help set up the look of it.
I remember setting up mine way back 2018 and messed up a bunch of things and I was like "freak it, I'll just go with sublime". Thank you for this and congratulations on the 1K subs, more power!

My one stop guide for terminal setup. Concise, Clear and to the point video.

Awesome! Happy to hear the video was helpful!

Well done! I recently fixed my Macbook and was looking for a playlist like this. Thanks a lot!
