Hey guys in today’s blog i will tell you how you can use ohmyzsh to increase productivity as a hacker the different plugins that come with ohmyzsh and to be honest it will definitely change your hacking game.
What Is OhMyZsh
As they mention it “Oh My Zsh is an open source, community-driven framework for managing your zsh configuration.

Once installed, your terminal shell will become the talk of the town or your money back! With each keystroke in your command prompt, you’ll take advantage of the hundreds of powerful plugins and beautiful themes. Strangers will come up to you in cafés and ask you, “that is amazing! are you some sort of genius?”
Finally, you’ll begin to get the sort of attention that you have always felt you deserved. …or maybe you’ll use the time that you’re saving to start flossing more often. 😬“
