User Reviews

  • I have been using Bash for a quite long time, but have transitioned to Zsh. By happenstance, on installing something today on one of my Android hand-held devices, Fish was installed as a dependancy. Consequently, Fish has hijacked my Termux shell environment! It looks all fleuro-neon!
  • I'm a very happy user of zsh for more than 10 year (on various Unices and windows via cygwin). Keep on the excellent work!
  • Love zsh!
  • Stellar, especially with oh-my-zsh
  • Simply the best, easiest and one of the most user friendly shell. Its autocomplete magic makes the life so much easier.
