zsh setup and configs

on my mac(s) i use zsh with oh my zsh and powerlevel10k.

this setup includes:

• path shortening on deeper levels
• context of user
• python version and venv name if "inside" one
• autosuggestions
• git pipenv pyenv zsh-autosuggestions
• start pipenv when entering a folder with a pythin virtual env
• neat icons and font ;)

installation

install home brew

sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)" you might need to run xcode installer or alike, but home brew guides you through that.

brew install pyenv

install pipenv (makes use of pyenv and for clean separation of python modules and a nice cli)

brew install pipenv
