Shades-of-Purple Theme for iTerm2 and ZSH
I 💜 purple, because purple can be genius.
A FOSS (Free & Open Source Software) project. Maintained by @AhmadAwais.
> Professional iTerm2 theme with hand-picked & bold shades of purple 💜 to go along with your iTerm2 terminal. A custom iTerm2 theme with style.
## Easy Installation
0. Make sure you hca Oh My Zsh installed
1. Drop the [`shades-of-purple.zsh-theme`](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ahmadawais/shades-of-purple-iterm2/master/shades-of-purple.zsh-theme) file in to the `~/.oh-my-zsh/themes/` directory.
```sh
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ahmadawais/shades-of-purple-iterm2/master/shades-of-purple.zsh-theme > ~/.oh-my-zsh/themes/shades-of-purple.zsh-theme
```
2. Open up your ZSH preferences at `~/.zshrc` and change the theme variable to `ZSH_THEME="shades-of-purple"`.
3. In iTerm2 access the iTerm2 > Preferences > Profiles > Colors Tab
4. Under the *Colors* tab import the [`shades-of-purple.itermcolors`](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ahmadawais/shades-of-purple-iterm2/master/shades-of-purple.itermcolors) file via the *Load Presets* drop-down at the bottom right.
```sh
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ahmadawais/shades-of-purple-iterm2/master/shades-of-purple.itermcolors > ~/Desktop/shades-of-purple.itermcolors
```
5. Under the *Text* tab change the font for each type (*Regular Font* to [Operator Mono](https://www.typography.com/fonts/operator/styles/) or [Fira Code](https://github.com/tonsky/FiraCode) or whatever you like, but for *Non-ASCII* font you must use **[Inconsolata for Powerline](https://github.com/powerline/fonts/tree/master/Inconsolata)**.
6. Refresh ZSH by typing `source ~/.zshrc` on the command line.
7. Done!!! 🙌
## Tips & Tricks
- ✅ [`shades-of-purple.itermcolors`](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ahmadawais/shades-of-purple-iterm2/master/shades-of-purple.itermcolors) is for anyone who uses iTerm2 and wants the same colors as shown above.
- ✅ [`shades-of-purple.zsh-theme`](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ahmadawais/shades-of-purple-iterm2/master/shades-of-purple.zsh-theme) is the prompt layout for zsh users to make your terminal report relevant and awesome info. You should probably use both.
They work well together! You will need to install the patched powerline font as well: . I use [Operator Mono](https://www.typography.com/fonts/operator/styles/) it's a $200 premium font (devs spend so much time with code, it's only fair that it looks good) a free alternative is [Fira Code](https://github.com/tonsky/FiraCode). For non-ASCII font, you'll need to also installed a patched [Powerline Font](https://github.com/powerline/fonts) — I use the [Inconsolata](https://github.com/powerline/fonts/tree/master/Inconsolata) and it works well for this theme.
