I've been using Starship for quite some time, and it's awesome! Definitely recommend it to anyone who wants a fast, modern, and rich prompt.

Besides the product, the community is pleasantly awesome as well. I've contributed a module to it and the maintainer has done a good job reviewing and testing. Heck, they even have a Discord server for contributors.




I've tried a number of different shell prompt tools over the past few decades. I've disliked them all due to their latency. I don't want to "feel" the delay. They were all in scripting languages, be it native bash, or python or whatever.

I tried out starship about three years ago and it is so fast I don't notice its execution time at all. I switched and haven't looked back.
