Oh My Zsh is probably the only good thing I've ever done with my life.
Oh My Zsh is among the first things i install on any new machine I set up. It's as necessary as the shell itself.

Oh My Zsh can sometimes get a bit in the way, and it needs more polish, but generally it turns zsh from something which takes a lot of research and config fiddling into something that works pleasantly out of the box, and makes tweaking more straightforward
-- @Dieterbe
I honestly don't even like using zsh without Oh My Zsh

This project is so much more than a sane set of defaults for zsh. It is a major hub of plugin development! The fact that everything is all nicely packaged as a project on github is very nice indeed. Zsh is an amazing shell, but it seems to suffer a lack of guides on how to use it. By checking out Oh My Zsh you get a really nice set of examples in which you can learn zsh

Oh My Zsh: your life in a shell

Oh My Zsh is probably one of the most fun open source projects to yell the name out loud.
Oh My Zsh makes me 300 milliseconds more efficient per command... I like it!
Oh My Zsh is now mandatory on all my dev servers, it makes bash look boring!

today i installed @ohmyzsh on my machine. after 10 minutes of use, i decided that there is no way back to bash =)
if a shell can make disruptive progress, zsh does.

My terminal is the happiest terminal on the whole earth since I have installed Zsh and Oh My Zsh!

ZSH, by default, is a pain to setup. Thanks Oh My Zsh for hand-holding noobs into this wonderful shell!

I've just started to use ZSH and with Oh My Zsh, my life just got better!

As a shell newbie, Oh My Zsh is my lighthouse. As I drown in the shell-sea at least I know where the mainland is!

My mouth dropped the first time I saw my new terminal with Oh My Zsh. I teach web development to students at a bootcamp. When students are struggling with the terminal, I tell them to install Oh My Zsh and struggling students start understanding it better. Its amazing themes can tell the students what directory they are in right way and what branch too

J'utilise OMZ depuis que j'ai commence a developper en C et ca m'a sauve la vie bien des fois ! Il est pour moi impensable d'utilser un shell sans OMZ!
