What is your favorite ZSH theme?

I've being using the classic robbyrussell with Oh My ZSH for quite some time now, and I'm looking for ideas about what to used next.

So, what is your favorite ZSH theme?

I have been using space-ship for about a year.

Powerlevel10k is an order of magnitude faster, easier to configure and has more features. Give it a try.

[Honza]

I was happy with Wes Bos' Cobalt 2 – but mate… Now, I'm a believer – Powerlevel10k is sweet!

[Jordan Mulcahy]

I like Powerlevel10k, however, it states that it is no longer going to be maintained. I'm coming from 2025 and I have been an avid powerlevel9k user, but its been buggy and having issues and powerlevel10k is suppose to be the better option but now sadly its not going to be maintained..

how to shorten the directory?

[Roman Perepelitsa]

Run p10k configure. If the directory is too long for your liking, open ~/.p10k.zsh, search for POWERLEVEL9K_DIR_MAX_LENGTH and set its value to 0.

I'm really liking the usage of color in this theme! Really lets you see what's important at a glance.

I made my own Frankenstein theme raw:

# Inspired by making a mixture the following themes:
# robbyrussell + arrow + lambda
# changing some colors and elements positions

local ret_status="%(?:%{$fg_bold[grey]%}λ :%{$fg_bold[red]%} λ )"
PROMPT=' ${ret_status}%{$fg[magenta]%}%c %{$fg[black]%}➤ %{$reset_color%}'
RPROMPT='$(git_prompt_info) %{$reset_color%}'

ZSH_THEME_GIT_PROMPT_PREFIX="%{$fg_bold[grey]%}git:(%{$fg[cyan]%}"
ZSH_THEME_GIT_PROMPT_SUFFIX="%{$reset_color%} "
ZSH_THEME_GIT_PROMPT_DIRTY="%{$fg[grey]%}) %{$fg[yellow]%}✗"
ZSH_THEME_GIT_PROMPT_CLEAN="%{$fg[grey]%})"

I have been using powerlevel10k for a while now. It has a nice setup/config and is pretty flexible.

[Jeklah]

Without a doubt, Powerlevel10k.

Kind of a shameless self plug, but I've made my own based on a theme from bash-it that I really liked, you can find it here.

[Noah Trupin]

Well done with the theme! The blue/green color combination is a nice touch

[Igor Moura]

Thanks, really appreciate your words :)

[Dante Calderón]

I like the default theme.

ZSH_THEME="robbyrussell"

[Glenn Carremans]

The Dracula 🧛‍♂️ theme is cool and minimalistic.
github.com/dracula/zsh

[Noah Trupin]

I use Dracula with VSCode, you can't really go wrong with it

[Johnny Bell]

You should check out Pure. It’s amazing. Doesn’t come default with Oh My Zsh, but you can install it and link it.

[Heiker]

But there is one that is based on that theme, I think is called refined.

[Johnny Bell]

I’ll check it out. Thanks.

[Noah Trupin]

Wow! I really like the color and minimalism in that one.

[Johnny Bell]

Yeah. I changed from a custom theme I built about a month ago and I’m in love ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[Nick Taylor]

I use Joker or Agnoster. Lately I've been on Agnoster.
