starship

brew install starship v1.25.1 ISC

Minimal, fast cross-shell prompt written in Rust that displays Git, language, and system info with extensive customization.

Why you might care

Replaces bash/zsh/fish prompts with a single config that works across shells and systems. Significantly faster than shell-script prompts (compiled Rust binary), renders on-demand info like Git status and language versions without lag. Highly modular—enable/disable modules per-project via .starship.toml, no shell-specific config needed.
