My powershell terminal

A brief description on how to install my custom powershell terminal.

Installation

You can either clone this repository, or run the bootstrap script directly from GitHub without cloning.

Quick install (no clone)

Run this one-liner in PowerShell. It downloads the repository to a temporary folder, installs the base tools with winget (tools/winget.ps1), the PowerShell modules (tools/ps.ps1), the Chocolatey packages (tools/choco.ps1) and some extra tools (tools/others.ps1), runs install.ps1, and removes the temporary files afterwards:

The scripts install all the required tools, PowerShell modules and Chocolatey packages, install the Caskaydia Nerd Font, and create the PowerShell profile with the oh-my-posh prompt and the aliases.

Execution Policy

Maybe there will be some problems with the executions policies, to solve it run:

Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted

Set the terminal font

Once everything is installed, update your Windows Terminal PowerShell profile to use the CaskaydiaCove Nerd Font so all the icons render correctly:

Reload the terminal to reload $PATH and apply the changes.
