Themes for Sysadmins

Customize your shells & terminals.

Apps

screen, tmux and zsh are for Linux.
Kitty, Windows Terminal and Fonts are for Windows.
Inside "Windows Terminal" folder there is the PowerLine for Powershell.

Instructions

Fonts

This is a must to make sure the themes works as intended.
If you are going to use Powershell themes then install a PowerLine Font.
If you are going to use Oh My ZSH (Linux) and/or Oh my Posh (Powershell) then use Nerd Fonts because they have PowerLine Symbols + some required extras.

  1. Install a PowerLine font, ex: CascadiaCodePL.ttf located in folder Fonts --> PowerLine folder.
  2. If you want to use a Nerd Font:
    Located in folder Fonts --> NerdFonts folder.
    My favorites are: CascadiaCode and SourceCodePro
    The fonts to install are:
    Caskaydia Cove Nerd Font Complete Windows Compatible.ttf
    Sauce Code Pro Nerd Font Complete Windows Compatible.ttf
    If you are not using Windows Terminal then i suggest to install the Mono Font version.
