The moon 🌙 icon is for lua (moon in Portuguese, lua lang was created in Brazil).

Very good video! As a French engineering student, your videos on your installation and your advice on note-taking are very useful to improve mine and work on it. I've heard of starship but never used it. Maybe it's time to give it a try. Thanks for your quality work!

[@mischavandenburg]

I appreciate the kind feedback! I'm honored to hear I'm making improvements to people's lives out there.

You can configure prompt for every lamguage. I use mainly JS and C#. In my config file I have it configured so that it shows which version of node the project is , and if in c# project which version of .Net the project is. In the docs you can find configs for many popular languages. You just copy the configs from docs. Starship is very customizable. Thanks for the video. Was fun to watch you try it

I did not know this existed, switching to Starship ASAP, thanks for sharing!

[@mischavandenburg]

Hope you enjoy it!

Starship is very informative as a prompt but with the font requirements and occasional timeout with the Git prompt, it's still distracting.

Been using Starship for a year or so, I forget it’s there until I setup a new local machine and that’s one of the first things I install. I also had a .toml but eventually decided to stick with the defaults for less prompt clutter. On Linux, I get mixed results with the icons due to nerd font packages.

Nice, I use a similar setup you use, some things stolen for sure ;-) , and I am also using starship with it for a few weeks allready. Good to see you integrate it as well. I'm looking forward to see what you will do with it in the future. One probelm I face, using starship while ssh-ing into remote servers bash, my command completion and command history does not work as it should. Maybe you find a solution for that before I can figuere it out. For now, I think I could install starship on all my machines, but than I will always have the same problems in my Containers, so that might not be the best solution to handle this.

Feel free to steal anything you like :D My dotfiles are available publically on my GitHub. I solved the problem of local configuration vs remote by getting good at the basics: bash, tmux and vim, so I'm not dependent on configuration any more to do the tasks I need to do. My local environment can have some luxuries and pretty styling, but I don't want to rely on any of that when I'm managing remote systems. This is why I don't use zsh for example. But that's just my take on it.

Just add kubernetes and azure subscription in your shell manually and add a kubeon in your alias 😅

[@micaelviana]

you put "sudo apt isntall starship" but this package is not available to ubuntu

[@mischavandenburg]

Correct, should have been at brew

[@Redyf]

What font is that?

[@bbhorus]

Looks like Ubuntu Mono

No, no, no. Keep lean and clean. PS="$ " 🙂
