Prepping a VM for Developer

By Default, any ubuntu VM lacks quite some things & plugis. Zsh, Oh-My-Zsh, Ruby, Go, etc. (Will keep on adding more items in this)

• Installing Oh-My-Zsh

Installing Oh-My-Zsh

1. By default, bash is the default shell in ubuntu. So let’s first change the default shell to zsh

sudo apt install curl wget git
sudo apt install zsh
zsh --version
echo $SHELL
chsh -s $(which zsh)

1. Now close and open the terminal again. Now, let’s install Oh-My-Zsh

sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/master/tools/install.sh)"

1. Check out themes for the same

ls ~/.oh-my-zsh/themes/

1. Open .zshrc and change the theme to any theme you want with ZSH_THEME="fox"

source ~/.zshrc
