Standard Notes (I highly recommend this one, If anyone knows native client?). Firefox (I use 4-5 instances of Firefox, I don’t use chrome). Slack, VS Code, PostMan, Spotify, Standard Notes, etc etcīut here is my list of softwares which I use on daily basis: Well I try to avoid Electron based app as much as possible, but sadly popular tools are written in Electron only. Ubuntu requires you to add their ppa, which you can find from. #Zettlr not installing in manjaro install#
To give fish a spin, just do a pacman/brew install fish. The few packages you may ever require, can be fetched using the “oh-my-fish” framework. It is different, but what you get is time-saved because tweaking and configuring fish as per your taste isn’t a hassle. To summarize: fish is definitely lighter, and faster than zsh or bash. The scripting language in fish may not be entirely POSIX compliant (one tradeoff you have to make for speed), but the scripts are neater and cleaner.
You can set and unset env variables temporarily or permanently, depending on your use-case. no need to have everything in one long file.
error messages in fish are also more detailed or helpful, rather than in zsh, IMHO.Ī lot of things in fish are configured using functions, which you can define and save separately. I have seen zsh slow down or take time to process what’s written, but fish highlights it almost instantly. Syntax highlighting is native to fish, and is very fast. It also has a ‘browser mode’, where you can configure the prompt, theme, aliases and other features using a friendly web-interface. On the other hand, getting up and running with fish is a breeze. Ĭonfiguring zsh to your taste takes time (if you dont have the dotfiles), and those dotfiles tend to get large pretty fast when you start copy pasting stuff into them. It also allows you to autocomplete switches for commands, along with a summary of what switch does what (uses the man pages of the command). The tab-completion in fish doesn’t just parse through your history and available packages to suggest commands. You may need to install the autocomplete plugin in zsh, but it is baked right into fish. zsh tends to slow down when you have a lot of plugins enabled. My most current shell (for over 2years now) is Fish, and I absolutely love it.įish is lightweight. I have used bash, zsh+omz, and fish shells, so would love to share my experience.
