This repository is a curated, community-driven collection of tools, tips, themes, and resources that make working in the terminal more productive and enjoyable. It pulls together high-quality links to terminal emulators, shells, prompts, plugins, fonts, color schemes, and command-line utilities, alongside learning materials for sharpening everyday CLI skills. The list favors practical, well-maintained projects and is organized so you can quickly discover alternatives for common tasks (navigation, search, networking, monitoring, text processing, and more). It also points to customization ideas—prompts, themes, and fonts—that help you craft a clear, legible, and pleasant environment. Because it’s a living list, contributions are encouraged, keeping entries current as tools evolve. If you spend time in a terminal—whether writing code, administering systems, or just automating chores—this is a single, convenient place to find better defaults and new favorites.
