Iterm installation:

With command

brew install --cask iterm2

Iterm2-night-owl

# Install
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k.git ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-$HOME/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/themes/powerlevel10k

And set ==ZSH_THEME="powerlevel10k/powerlevel10k"== inside ==~/.zshrc ==.

To do so simply open the terminal and type:

# Open it with your text editor (I use vscode)
code  ~/.zshrc

And copy paste ==ZSH_THEME="powerlevel10k/powerlevel10k"== inside. Save, quit your iterm, and done.

Now, you can run the p10k setup comman:

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

git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions ~/.zsh/zsh-autosuggestions

cd ~/.zsh/

git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting

git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-completions

Now go to the zshrc config file (p10k configuration) to add the plugins we just downloaded

code  ~/.zshrc

And copy paste the following config files bellow ZSH_THEME="powerlevel10k/powerlevel10k"

ZSH_THEME="powerlevel10k/powerlevel10k"

source ~/.zsh/zsh-autosuggestions/zsh-autosuggestions.zsh source ~/.zsh/zsh-syntax-highlighting/zsh-syntax-highlighting.zsh source ~/.zsh/zsh-completions/zsh-completions.plugin.zsh
