About this project

Powerlevel10k is a Zsh theme that prioritizes performance, flexibility, and an out-of-the-box setup experience. It includes a built-in configuration wizard (`p10k configure`) that generates `~/.p10k.zsh` based on user preferences. Key capabilities include: - **Instant prompt**: Eliminates Zsh startup lag even when slow plugins like pyenv or nvm are loaded, by rendering the prompt immediately before plugins finish loading. - **Transient prompt**: Collapses the prompt to a minimal form after command execution, making terminal scrollback easier to read and commands easier to copy-paste. - **Show on command**: Context-aware prompt segments that appear only when relevant commands are being typed (e.g., kubernetes context only when `kubectl` is detected). - **Dozens of built-in segments**: Covers Git status, AWS/Azure/GCP credentials, language versions (Node, Python, Go, Rust, Java, PHP, Ruby), CPU load, memory, disk usage, battery, VPN, WiFi, time, and many more. - **Powerlevel9k and Pure compatibility**: Can replicate existing Powerlevel9k or Pure theme configurations with significant performance improvements. - **Custom segment API**: Users can define their own prompt segments using the public API. Installation methods include manual git clone, Oh My Zsh, Prezto, Zim, Homebrew, and various package managers for Arch Linux and Alpine Linux. Note: The project has very limited support—no new features are planned, most bugs will go unfixed, and help requests are ignored.
