They said, β€œreach for the stars.” Apparently, Oh My Zsh took that literally. Since 2009, nearly 200,000 people have starred the project on GitHub. And somehow, 17 years later, that little line is still climbing.

So we’re curious… how many people have been using Oh My Zsh for years and never actually clicked the ⭐? If that’s you, we have a small favor. Let’s see if we can get Oh My Zsh to 200K. ⭐ ⁠github.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh Reach for the stars. …all 200,000 of them.

Somewhere right now someone is typing: git psuh. The thefuck plugin is already in Oh My Zsh. Esc Esc fixes your last command: missing sudo, missing -p, typos, forgotten --set-upstream... What's the typo you make most?

Ever run a command and then realize which AWS account you were pointed at? The aws plugin puts your profile and region right in your prompt. asp prod, asr eu-west-1, and you can see where you are before you hit enter. 9 tricks in 25 seconds πŸ‘‡

If your day bounces between docker, kubectl, terraform, aws, and an ssh session you forgot was open... there's probably already a plugin for it. Nearly 50 ship with Oh My Zsh for DevOps and sysadmin work. A few favorites: kgp β†’ kubectl get pods, tfp β†’ terraform plan, dcupd β†’ docker-compose up -d

If you spend your day in npm, yarn, deno, Angular, React Native, VS Code... there's probably already a plugin for it. Nearly 30 of them ship with Oh My Zsh for front-end work. A few favorites: yd β†’ yarn dev, drw β†’ deno run --watch, rnios β†’ react-native run-ios. ohmyz.sh

We’ve been working through a bunch of new features and updates for @ohmyz.sh lately. One of the latest: a new cooldown option for the updater. Our release strategy has always been pretty simple… git pull from the primary branch.

When folks ask about my favorite @ohmyzsh plugins, I can easily rattle off a short list. One of the bigger unlocks when most of your team is using Oh My Zsh, though… build your own!

Wrote about how we opted to update @ohmyz.sh's contribution guidelines to account for AI. If anything, I wanted to capture where my brain is at on the topic, should we need to revisit this in 6-12 months. robbyonrails.com/articles/202...

We’re looking for a few more Discord moderators! If you use Oh My Zsh often and can point people to the proper channels, we should talk. If you can also help keep spam bots from turning the server into a circus, even better.

If you’ve ever thought β€œI should get more involved with open source”… this is one of those moments.

It’s December… so here’s the straight truth. Our primary Discord moderator has slowly taken on more and more of the workload… and they’ll be stepping away soon. We need a few new people to help keep the @ohmyz.sh Discord running smoothly.

What are you hacking on today? When’s the last time you experimented with a different font in your terminal? Drop your favorite below... maybe you’ll inspire someone to try something new (or be inspired yourself). Your shell deserves nice things. 🌈

You might notice... - Zero plugins - Zero themes - Zero vision for the future. Yet, nearly 2500 developers showed up to contribute code to what it is today.

I am not sure who needs to hear this, but if you are an @ohmyz.sh user and you are not using the `take` command, you are doing yourself a disservice. Next time you need to clone a repo, do a `take `. I'll wait.... and you're welcome.

If you’re looking for a reason to visit Boston in September, check out @squiggleconf.com. Last year, they invited me to kick things off with a talk about the 15-year story of building @ohmyz.sh. A weekend side project that slowly grew into a global community I never could have predicted.

What started as a weekend experiment is now on terminals everywhere. Check out @robbyonrails.com talk at @squiggleconf.com about how Oh My Zsh grew into something much bigger than expected.

I’ve been using bash for years on Linux, but today I gave Zsh a shot, and I’m impressed! This plugin makes working with Git a breeze. 😏 Definitely worth checking out if you haven’t already! github.com/ohmyzsh/ohmy... #git #linux #devtools #indiedev #coding
