If I was seeking to be more productive I would probably install a tool like Fig and be done with it rather than spend time diving into the books to customize my shell. I think a lot of people in this thread are overlooking the simplicity of installing it and having it "just work" versus spending time fiddling with zsh configs.

I didn’t have fig just work. Actually I realized it made assumptions about the way my bashrc and bash_profile worked that broke the installation of fig and my shell configuration after I made some seemingly unrelated edits to my bash config.

It’s been broken for months and I didn’t get enough value out of it to figure out how to fix the installation.

configuring zsh is easier that you could possibly think

you only have to do it once and forget about it
