## Features
- Asynchronous git info
- Fully customizable
- [Colors for any of the prompt sections](https://typewritten.dev/#/prompt_color_customization)
- [Prompt layout](https://typewritten.dev/#/prompt_customization?id=typewritten_prompt_layout)
- [Prompt symbol](https://typewritten.dev/#/prompt_customization?id=typewritten_symbol)
- [Constant display of git home directory](https://typewritten.dev/#/prompt_customization?id=typewritten_git_relative_path)
- [Cursor](https://typewritten.dev/#/prompt_customization?id=typewritten_cursor)
- [Prefix on right prompt](https://typewritten.dev/#/prompt_customization?id=typewritten_right_prompt_prefix)
## Quick start
### [npm](https://npmjs.com/get-npm)
```shell
npm install -g typewritten
```
That's it. The script will make the necessary symlinks to `fpath` and set the prompt in your `.zshrc`.
### [Homebrew](https://brew.sh)
```shell
brew install typewritten
```
Then load typewritten in your `.zshrc` by using zsh prompinit:
```shell
autoload -U promptinit; promptinit
prompt typewritten
```
### Manual
Clone the typewritten repository somewhere you can easily link. I recommend creating a `.zsh` directory at root.
```shell
mkdir -p "$HOME/.zsh"
git clone https://github.com/reobin/typewritten.git "$HOME/.zsh/typewritten"
```
Load typewritten in your `.zshrc` by using zsh prompinit:
```shell
fpath+=$HOME/.zsh/typewritten
autoload -U promptinit; promptinit
prompt typewritten
```
Note: if using `oh-my-zsh`, set `ZSH_THEME=""` in your `.zshrc` to disable oh-my-zsh themes.
### Other ways to install
Many other ways to install typewritten are available in the [docs](https://typewritten.dev/#/installation)
## Customization
typewritten is customizable in many ways. To keep the readme file as lean as possible, the documentation was moved to [https://typewritten.dev](https://typewritten.dev).
The documentation is separated into two parts:
- [Prompt customization](https://typewritten.dev/#/prompt_customization), everything to do with how and where the info is displayed
- [Prompt color customization](https://typewritten.dev/#/prompt_color_customization), set a custom color for any of the prompt sections
