Zest - the animated shell prompt you never knew you wanted
I know there are lot of shell-theme nerds in this group. I want to share a little something that Claude and I have been working on in our spare time. If you have min/maxed your prompt to be tiny/fast, this is not for you. If you want to add some fun to your daily terminal experience, check it out:
https://github.com/ackertyson/zest
One gotcha I want to highlight when uninstalling: because your prompt gets piped into this app every time it draws in, you should remove references from your shell config BEFORE you uninstall the binary, otherwise your shell could become unusable. The README example configs contain measures to protect against this.
This project is a great example of the “I never would have gotten around to this on my own” phenomenon as discussed in AI is getting ridiculously productive
