Use PowerShell, CMD, WSL and custom shells in one terminal with tabs on Windows 10!
I used Hyper Terminal on my Windows maschine for quite some time and really like it (especially cool extension like hyperpower ).
But I wanted something new and discovered FluentTerminal!
Time to install it!
You can install it via Chocolatey or by downloading it from the repository and install it (manual in repo).
choco install fluent-terminal
Note:
I needed to download the latest *_No_Dependencies
release and run Install.ps1
afterwards to have the app available via windows menu (start and context)!
How does it look?
After the first start, it uses powershell and has the default settings which can be customized.
I suggest to review the keybindings and the profiles so you know how to open a certain shell by keyboard:
Themes
You can import any iterm2 compatible theme!
Find examples here: https://iterm2colorschemes.com/
Remarks
Fluent Terminal has a huge advantage over hyper for me: custom fonts and symbols from oh-my-zsh in WSL are working properly without any configuration!
