Using Starship for My Bash Prompt

| posted in: nerdliness  bash 


For many years now I have been using Liquidprompt to create and populate my bash shell prompt. Prior to discovering Liquidprompt, I had a hand-rolled prompt that did some of what I wanted.

I’ve now switched to using Starship for my prompt. In particular I like the bracketed segments preset.

So far I’ve only switched on my personal computer. If by the end of the Thanksgiving break I’m still liking Starship, I’ll set it up on work computer.
