I stumbled on the yellow while playing around with the default choices in Terminal. :) I like it...almost all of my other coding screens are dark grey.

Sorry to disappoint, I'm actually using the Windows Subsystem for Linux together with VcXsrv and basically I just compiled my regular linux terminal for it ( st.suckless.org/ ) The font I'm using is Realtime by Juri Zaech in case anybody cares.
I hope this helps, but I'm sorry if it doesn't.
Edit: st has quite a few drawbacks. It's a terminal emulator and literally nothing else. You don't even have a scrollback buffer. There are patches on the website for it, but expect to manually splice them in with some code surgery, because those patches are always out of date.

Skitch is great, I stopped using it when I found out that Preview has a lot of those annotating features. It isn't as feature full as Skitch, but it fits me well.
If on Windows 10 there is the WinKey + Shift + S keycombo to launch selecting an area to screen shot which gets copied to the clipboard. Or just hit WinKey, type snip, and hit enter, then select the Window selection. Or use the WinKey + Alt + prntscrn shortcut with the correct window selected and a shot will be saved to your Captures directory
All these crazy key combinations, on Linux all you need to do is press the regular old print screen button, and it lets you do any of those things without having to remember arcane sequences ;)
This is just the iTerm app as a Terminal replacement. But you can make "bash has tabs" with screen or tmux :) have a look, it's really great for remote work too.
I ended up moving away because I couldn't deal with large projects - I've started pulling it up for quick edits in my Vs code terminal though. I miss the utility
Works very well for me and especially with the combination of tmux I do all my coding in one terminal window. I can even zoom in one pane, do something and zoom back out.
Termux on android - I use default terminals (nothing fancy) with dotfiles in source control so all my devices are matching and I can re-provision if I want to destroy them with fire.
My desktop/laptop/server are all the same format (different uname in PS1, semi-transparent background, otherwise default gnome-terminal), and red PS1 when ssh'd in (since I used to shut down the wrong box from time to time). Obviously programming on my phone is a last resort, but it's saved me from production fires before - ssh and data, what else do you need?

The // ♥ is the default prompt in Flatiron School's IDE (a play on their motto "Learn, Love, Code"), and I've been adding it to my terminal ever since.
He/Him/His I'm a Software Engineer and a teacher. There's no feeling quite like the one you get when you watch someone's eyes light up learning something they didn't know.
The settings for the prompt are usually in a file in the home directory called .bashrc or .bash_profile, search for PS1, that's the variable that holds your bash prompt. If you want to change it just change the value of PS1.
There are lots of tutorials online that teach how to add dynamic information to the prompt, like the current working directory, the time, and how to add color.
What's performance on Hyper like? I ask because I know how slow atom can be and seeing as how this is also built on electron I'm a little skeptical on it's performance potential. Also, my terminal:
I run Tmux with vim as my main editor and zsh as my shell, I use zplug for zsh plugin management. My theme is gruvbox on my term and in vim
I don't have any problems with startup times or anything. It takes like half a second to open and it's fine. (I have an i7-6700k with 32GB of Ram if that helps)
Equal parts higher-ed IT, web dev and support; with a dash of freelance consulting thrown in for good measure. (Oct/19: Seeking change of pace. Not afraid to take a step back in order to move ahead!)
I use Guake drop-down terminal with plain ol' bash, a hotkey to open the pane on demand, and semi-transparent so I can see what's going on underneath--often because I have a how-to of some sort open at the same time for reference.
Are you using git bash on Windows 10? What's wrong with WSL?
I have Ubuntu WSL with a console theme and oh my zsh with power-line theme and a patched font, for use as regular terminal. But I also have it set for using as the terminal in vscode.
The one I was using was from the power line font pack, there is a patched power line pack. I'm not sure if that had First.
However, there is now Nerd Fonts (github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts) which is a much larger pack of patched fonts - still not sure if first is in that.
To use any of the forms from any pack, simply unzip the font you want, install it on windows in the normal manner (right click & install iirc) then restart the shell and check the shell properties to select the new font.
You can see my terminal setup in My Mac Setup. TLDR fish shell and iTerm2 with Joker theme, but about to switch back to agnoster. I'm on public transportation at the moment, but there's a screenshot in my setup post.
Konsole with several tabs. DejaVu Sans Mono font (since I've yet to find proportional font friendly terminals and apps). Very large scroll-back buffer, though I clear it often. Bash.
I don't think mine is much to look at, other than the status bar at the top. Looking at everyone else's terminals makes me want to fancy mine up more. I mainly wanted to post this because I only saw one other PowerShell user.
This is my work machine I'm using Iterm2 with zsh shell. The font is mononoki and the syntax theme is panda syntax. Also the system default fullscreen is disabled and has a toggle hotkey for cmd + (dot). So anytime i want something i can toggle my terminal.
I am a product engineer and have helped build software from small startups, to manipulating hundreds of millions of data points. I write API's and make tools that make developers lives easier.
I pretty much exclusively use iTerm's hotkey window overlay to access my terminal from anywhere (with global shortcut). Shell is zsh with the agnoster theme.

Emacs in a Mac Terminal. The bottom buffer is a shell, the top buffer is whatever I am working on (at the moment, a document for docs.opendatakit.org).
When working on web stuff, including docs (which I usually am), I also keep a second terminal open that runs a Python http.server in the build directory.
Emacs has a few different terminal options. I only really like shell, but none of them quite work like I want to.
My home setup uses st, tmux with my own theme, zsh with oh-my-zsh and my own theme. The editor is kakoune with theme desertex (comes with the editor). The low contrast shows that the pane is currently not active.
How did you get tmux to work with st / kakoune if you don't mind me asking? I'm absolutely loving kakoune + tmux, but the colors are all wonky at the moment. If I try the color overrides in my tmux.conf, then tmux panes fail to work when using Kakoune to invoke them ;(
[EDIT] Nevermind! I discovered that I had the wrong overrides :D Thank you for your configs!! I never did take the time to understand the whole tmux color business; I think it's now time that I did.
Developer with a love for Ruby. Always smiling. Spanish speaker. Continuously learning. RTFD!! Ruby for Good core team. Flatiron School alum. I take advice with a grain of salt & a shot of tequila.
Inspired by this post I decided to spice up my terminal a bit. I switched to zsh using oh-my-zsh and have added a nice skull emoji to the powerlevel9k theme as well as a few other customizations.
Ante-Scriptum: The other windows aren't pushed by the terminal, I just resized Firefox for the screenshot If you can't read what's in the screenshot: This is my Guake Terminal, it runs fish, instead of the default bash. I set it to auto-start on boot-up and always keep it running on the background. I call it by pressing F12 and it drops down like a video game console, I press F12 and it disappears while still running, without cluttering my already busy window list. I can set an image as a background, set the background's transparency, choose different themes, open multiple tabs. I love my terminal!
It's the default macOS terminal. The text color is currently not the shade of teal that I like, because I messed it up trying to improve the contrast.
I want to mess around with ANSI colors a bit to offset the program output from the commands and prompts. I also think it would be nice to show the return code if it's nonzero.
My custom theme for ZSH. The terminal is gnome-terminal on arch linux + KDE. You can find it here if you're interested: github.com/redxtech/dotfiles/blob/...
It's fully customize-able by default if there are things that you would like to change about it as well.
I am a self taught developer that works best when floating in between design and engineering teams. I enjoy sharing what I know via short instructional screencasts and the occasional written post.
Using Windows Subsystem for Linux as a local terminal. Normally find myself in an SSH Session to another box though. (Have KiTTY, a PuTTY fork, configured quite similarly). Using a solarized Dark color scheme, using dotfiles in source control (on my github). Right.
I have a few different terminal themes I use. My current favorite is ducky:
I usually use taller at work because it gives me more git information (branch, time since last commit, state of branch):
I'm not currently using magicalness anywhere, but I switch back to it from time to time. Each time a new window/tab is opened in the terminal the emoji in the last line is randomly swapped out.
double tapping option brings iTerm up from the bottom of my screen. Those settings are not in the repo, but if anyone is interested I will update the configs to include everything. :)
I feel happy cooking responsive web apps & services using PHP, Python, Go, Node.js, React and even Elm as ingredients. Occasionally I might even deliver a swift iOS or Android app.

is that
massive-js
as in the not-really-an-orm for postgres? if so i discovered it yesterday - great package!It is, yes! Glad you like it!
perfect one! 10/10
Love the question and all the responses. I'm using zsh and the man theme - ran a few dir and speak commands to show how git and time are incorporated.

This kinda looks like a giant Post-It note. I like that.
I stumbled on the yellow while playing around with the default choices in Terminal. :) I like it...almost all of my other coding screens are dark grey.
I try to keep it pretty minimal
Here is my minimal setup:
how to have 3 different color please
Default Oh My ZSH setup
Seems more like prezto and not Oh My ZSH.
Yeah you are correct, my bad. I have since switched over to fish shell.
I have a random happy ascii character and a motivational phrase every new window. :)
Here's where I make the money...
This is the ideal terminal. You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.
Is it? From my experience, the windows terminal is both less useful and simply slower to use than any Unix terminal. But it certainly gets the job done.
GG Allyn is referencing this: twitter.com/scrowder/status/687260...
There are definitely better terminals, even on Windows. Still, this is what I get paid for
Ah, I get it. Yeah, for our Windows servers I like git bash.
Our environment is locked down enough that git bash isn’t an option for me. I like it when I get the chance, though!
The Linux simulation you see when you open Git Bash is actually MSYS2 which you can find right here
You can do really cool things with it, like using the GCC tool-chain right inside of Windows.
Here's mine :D


And on Windows:
Hold on while I go install neofetch...
What terminal are you using for Windows. I've been using Git Bash but am looking for something better, preferably something with ZSH.
Sorry to disappoint, I'm actually using the Windows Subsystem for Linux together with VcXsrv and basically I just compiled my regular linux terminal for it ( st.suckless.org/ )
The font I'm using is Realtime by Juri Zaech in case anybody cares.
I hope this helps, but I'm sorry if it doesn't.
Edit: st has quite a few drawbacks. It's a terminal emulator and literally nothing else. You don't even have a scrollback buffer. There are patches on the website for it, but expect to manually splice them in with some code surgery, because those patches are always out of date.
On my home machine 😄
Quick tip: If you press Cmd+Shift+4 and then press Space you can take a screenshot of a single application :)
What they didn't tell me: Cmd+Ctrl+Shift+4 will put the screenshot into the clipboard, which is a lot easier when what you want is to paste directly into Slack.
This is awesome too! Unless you use Safari, because Safari doesn't support this =/
My final recommendation for screenshots is Skitch, which has very nifty tools for annotating. I love the arrows especially.
Skitch is great, I stopped using it when I found out that Preview has a lot of those annotating features. It isn't as feature full as Skitch, but it fits me well.
If on Windows 10 there is the WinKey + Shift + S keycombo to launch selecting an area to screen shot which gets copied to the clipboard.
Or just hit WinKey, type snip, and hit enter, then select the Window selection.
Or use the WinKey + Alt + prntscrn shortcut with the correct window selected and a shot will be saved to your Captures directory
All these crazy key combinations, on Linux all you need to do is press the regular old print screen button, and it lets you do any of those things without having to remember arcane sequences ;)
And if you hit
Alt + Print
,you get a screenshot of the current focused window.
Good old print screen still works on Windows. These are for custom crops.
Woah that is a neat tip.
FYI You can get rid of the "Last login" with
touch .hushlogin
Also, I really like the "cash cow" prompt :)
Here's my work machine 😇
wait, bash has tabs?
Iterm ftw
Any macOS terminal has tabs.
This is just the iTerm app as a Terminal replacement. But you can make "bash has tabs" with screen or tmux :) have a look, it's really great for remote work too.
Linux OS have tabs as well. Try
ctr+shift+t
;)In case someone asks, this is the theme.
Nord is the best theme for terminal
here you go
Is that NERDTree or something different?
Yep that's nerd tree
What editor is that? Looks neat.
Vim.
Lol I know how to exit vim, I swear. Didn't recognize it with the file explorer showing.
How's react dev in vim?
I ended up moving away because I couldn't deal with large projects - I've started pulling it up for quick edits in my Vs code terminal though. I miss the utility
Works very well for me and especially with the combination of tmux I do all my coding in one terminal window. I can even zoom in one pane, do something and zoom back out.
Any way you can share your .vimrc? would like to check out your settings.
Sure thing, use this branch it is up to date github.com/Khaledgarbaya/dotfiles/...

Adding Emoji 🔥 to your terminal
Anthony Delgado ・ Oct 24 '17 ・ 1 min read
Zooming out a bit:
ok, now enhance, pls...
Mac Keyboard shortcut for emojis: ctrl + cmd + space
👌
That's my terminal, I use Hyper with the zsh theme zeit.zsh-theme. I like to keep it simple.
Really don't get why anyone would run node just to type in a terminal... This confuses me. Though it does look pretty.
Termux on android - I use default terminals (nothing fancy) with dotfiles in source control so all my devices are matching and I can re-provision if I want to destroy them with fire.
My desktop/laptop/server are all the same format (different uname in PS1, semi-transparent background, otherwise default gnome-terminal), and red PS1 when ssh'd in (since I used to shut down the wrong box from time to time). Obviously programming on my phone is a last resort, but it's saved me from production fires before - ssh and data, what else do you need?
My work linux box:

I'm me on my computer
It's almost time to go
It's not too cold out
I've had two cups of coffee today
I'm in my home directory
Wow...and I immediately had to go and look up Taskwarrior :)
How??? I want this config!

This needs cleaning up. As pasted from my prompt.sh
and this in my .bashrc:

Here's mine! Tmux + fish + custom themes for both iterm and emacs
(github.com/olkinn/forest-blue-iTerm and github.com/olkinn/forest-blue-emacs)
The
// ♥
is the default prompt in Flatiron School's IDE (a play on their motto "Learn, Love, Code"), and I've been adding it to my terminal ever since.how do i get out of script and the // ♥ prompt? I can't use terminal for anything else.
The settings for the prompt are usually in a file in the home directory called .bashrc or .bash_profile, search for PS1, that's the variable that holds your bash prompt. If you want to change it just change the value of PS1.
There are lots of tutorials online that teach how to add dynamic information to the prompt, like the current working directory, the time, and how to add color.
Thanks for the help,
It seems that some kind of script was running and even when I exit it, It would restart when opened terminal again.
It started after I followed the set up the Flatiron school tutorials.
In the end I deleted all the .bashxx files and restarted terminal.
Nothing succeeds like excess!
Work Macbook: Hyper with Pure, and Zsh using the Spaceship theme
This is the best, because I use the same😁
spaceship-prompt + tmux in Hyper with hypernasa plugin. Left pane is gtop.
The entire .zshrc can be found in my setup repo
What's performance on Hyper like? I ask because I know how slow atom can be and seeing as how this is also built on electron I'm a little skeptical on it's performance potential.
Also, my terminal:
I run Tmux with vim as my main editor and zsh as my shell, I use zplug for zsh plugin management.
My theme is gruvbox on my term and in vim
It's not fantastic, but good enough for how I use it. Performance degrades quickly as you start adding plugins.
I typically use VS Code's terminal for the convenience, but it's also wicked fast. Sure do miss the APOD background though...
EDIT: Hyper 2 uses VS Code's renderer, thus it's now also wicked fast.
WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) in Hyper with ZSH
Hyper Config: gist.github.com/TimothyCole/a15953...
Pretty! But how is Hyper performance? (startup times, execution, etc)
The Hyper buffer is very bad... You can't run
cat
on large files. But the rest is acceptable, the slowest thing is WSL with OhMyZSHI do find OhMyZsh kinda slow on WSL. There are ways of reducing the issue but not completely :-\
I don't have any problems with startup times or anything. It takes like half a second to open and it's fine. (I have an i7-6700k with 32GB of Ram if that helps)
I use hyper as terminal, zsh as shell and pure (github.com/sindresorhus/pure).
I use Guake drop-down terminal with plain ol' bash, a hotkey to open the pane on demand, and semi-transparent so I can see what's going on underneath--often because I have a how-to of some sort open at the same time for reference.
I like it simple and clean :)
Hyper (w/ Hyper One Light theme for the white background) + Zsh + Spaceship theme
Here's mine, I'm using iTerm2 on macOS with oh-my-zsh, color theme is nova and the iTerm theme is cobalt2
here is mine, every time someone says something about it, it gets more colorful.
You can make a picture show up by using markdown, like this.

Oh snap, thanks!
My terminal: hyper-terminal

Configuration: .hyper.js (Still a long way from complete)
Are you using git bash on Windows 10? What's wrong with WSL?
I have Ubuntu WSL with a console theme and oh my zsh with power-line theme and a patched font, for use as regular terminal. But I also have it set for using as the terminal in vscode.
Wsl is the best thing in Windows. Nothing is wrong with it. 😋
How did you patch your fonts on WSL? I noticed some icons are not displaying on my terminal. I use fira code
The one I was using was from the power line font pack, there is a patched power line pack. I'm not sure if that had First.
However, there is now Nerd Fonts (github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts) which is a much larger pack of patched fonts - still not sure if first is in that.
To use any of the forms from any pack, simply unzip the font you want, install it on windows in the normal manner (right click & install iirc) then restart the shell and check the shell properties to select the new font.
Thanks alot for replying. Let me try this right away.
Edit: Hey @toby it worked.
I don't like the amount of information being displayed there. Any tip on how to make it lean like yours?
Thank You
You can see my terminal setup in My Mac Setup. TLDR fish shell and iTerm2 with Joker theme, but about to switch back to agnoster. I'm on public transportation at the moment, but there's a screenshot in my setup post.
Alright, back in front of my laptop. Here you go.
cool!
alacritty + tmux + zsh
tmux, and always a pane with htop and another with docker stats.
I am using
Terminal.app
withzsh
andsobole
as theme.I wrote two articles about my setup: Instant +100% command line productivity boost, Using better CLIs
You can copy all my dotfiles from github: github.com/sobolevn/dotfiles
OhMyZSH + Iterm + spaceship theme
Konsole with several tabs. DejaVu Sans Mono font (since I've yet to find proportional font friendly terminals and apps). Very large scroll-back buffer, though I clear it often. Bash.
Hyper + zsh + Pure
Nothing fancy here.
I don't think mine is much to look at, other than the status bar at the top. Looking at everyone else's terminals makes me want to fancy mine up more. I mainly wanted to post this because I only saw one other PowerShell user.
Why don't you user hyper. It's cool. But powershell is too.
Because Hyper appears to be only for OSX and I use Windows?
nope, it's cross-platform.
This is my work machine

I'm using
Iterm2
withzsh
shell. The font ismononoki
and the syntax theme ispanda syntax
. Also the system default fullscreen is disabled and has a toggle hotkey forcmd + (dot)
. So anytime i want something i can toggle my terminal.Here is mine.
Terminal panes:
I do like termite, but this is the normal terminal in gnome. I just never got around to compiling termite on this machine.
Standard OS X Terminal with slightly tweaked Novel theme.
I pretty much exclusively use iTerm's hotkey window overlay to access my terminal from anywhere (with global shortcut). Shell is zsh with the agnoster theme.
Every day starts with:
Alt+Space
cd ~/Document/projects/...
code .
I've got two. Guake is used whenever I need a terminal alongside other windows...
...but if I need to work exclusively in the terminal for a while, I use Terminator...
Here is mine: bash with nerd fonts, tuned git prompt, icons based on location + files in folder & custom colors
Using spaceship prompt & a terminal color theme of my own devising:
Love it! Do you have a link to the image you have as the background?
It's from one of the wallpapers in this pack, if I remember correctly!
I'll bite!
Zsh with oh-my-zsh and zsh syntax highlighting. Stock Gnome colors... I'll see if I can find an old setup, when I didn't like anything stock
Emacs in a Mac Terminal.
The bottom buffer is a shell, the top buffer is whatever I am working on (at the moment, a document for docs.opendatakit.org).
When working on web stuff, including docs (which I usually am), I also keep a second terminal open that runs a Python http.server in the build directory.
Emacs has a few different terminal options. I only really like
shell
, but none of them quite work like I want to.Here's mine.
iTerm 2, running oh-my-zsh with the Spaceship theme.
Font is Operator Mono, color scheme is Cobalt2.
My home setup uses st, tmux with my own theme, zsh with oh-my-zsh and my own theme. The editor is kakoune with theme desertex (comes with the editor). The low contrast shows that the pane is currently not active.
How did you get tmux to work with st / kakoune if you don't mind me asking? I'm absolutely loving kakoune + tmux, but the colors are all wonky at the moment. If I try the color overrides in my tmux.conf, then tmux panes fail to work when using Kakoune to invoke them ;(
[EDIT] Nevermind! I discovered that I had the wrong overrides :D Thank you for your configs!! I never did take the time to understand the whole tmux color business; I think it's now time that I did.
My
/home
:)I'm still looking forward to tweaking it more ... but so far I like it.

How do you add the background photo?
Inspired by this post I decided to spice up my terminal a bit. I switched to zsh using oh-my-zsh and have added a nice skull emoji to the powerlevel9k theme as well as a few other customizations.
happy that this post helped you out to find something good.
Here is mine, pretty simple but lovely :D

Looks about the same on my office desktop and my old thinkpad
Ante-Scriptum: The other windows aren't pushed by the terminal, I just resized Firefox for the screenshot

If you can't read what's in the screenshot:
This is my Guake Terminal, it runs fish, instead of the default bash.
I set it to auto-start on boot-up and always keep it running on the background.
I call it by pressing F12 and it drops down like a video game console, I press F12 and it disappears while still running, without cluttering my already busy window list.
I can set an image as a background, set the background's transparency, choose different themes, open multiple tabs. I love my terminal!
It's the default macOS terminal. The text color is currently not the shade of teal that I like, because I messed it up trying to improve the contrast.
I want to mess around with ANSI colors a bit to offset the program output from the commands and prompts. I also think it would be nice to show the return code if it's nonzero.
Here's mine with Termite and Oh-My-ZSH :)
My machine, the background is animated, you can see it here.

Nothing special, iTerm2 with a few custom preferences.

I really like this utility
I have this in a separate iTerm window. Love tiny-care-terminal.
Nothing fancy
Terminator with Solarized Dark and zsh

I use Hyper... 😍😍

Brings me joy every time I use it!
Computer and user names have been changed in the image for privacy of course 😉
gnome-terminal in i3 using zsh with powerline
My custom theme for ZSH. The terminal is gnome-terminal on arch linux + KDE.
You can find it here if you're interested: github.com/redxtech/dotfiles/blob/...
It's fully customize-able by default if there are things that you would like to change about it as well.
Here's mine. I just started working on my graduation thesis project. It's a react app that communicates with a Traccar backend system.
Here's mine, I use fish shell and I have a custom startup script to add the fish logo :) config.fish and fish.txt
Here is mine - Terminator on Ubuntu 17.10, using Oh-my-Zsh with spaceship theme, and color scheme generated using pywal.
Could you tell me how to set separator line color and size?
I never customized it. That was the default color in terminator. Sorry mate.
It's ok, thanks anyway
iTerm2 + zsh + tmux + nvim + :pizza:
OhMyZsh with Powerline theme

termite + i3 = <3
Using Windows Subsystem for Linux as a local terminal. Normally find myself in an SSH Session to another box though. (Have KiTTY, a PuTTY fork, configured quite similarly). Using a solarized Dark color scheme, using dotfiles in source control (on my github). Right.
Terminal.app + tmux
I use Nord as theme.
I recently switched to using ohmyzsh.
screenshot please?
I added one before but here it is

oh-my-zsh | tmux | htop docker stats | fullscreen vertical monitor

Here you go.
Font: Fira Mono
Colors: Dracula
iTerm2 with ZSH.
Color palette is Dracula
"Theme": From My dotfiles
I have a few different terminal themes I use. My current favorite is ducky:

I usually use taller at work because it gives me more git information (branch, time since last commit, state of branch):

I'm not currently using magicalness anywhere, but I switch back to it from time to time. Each time a new window/tab is opened in the terminal the emoji in the last line is randomly swapped out.

other emoji's that might show up:

Running PowerShell in ConEmu. Prompt is oh-my-posh, rolling my own fork of ps-colors with added icons.
Pretty old discussion but here's mine:

I practically use a full screen instance with tmux
iTerm, zsh, powerlevel9k, OMZ, and custom colors because I cannot look at half the color schemes without my brain and eyes burning. Soft colors.
Not entirely up-to-date repository here: github.com/Jahhein/zshconfigs
double tapping option brings iTerm up from the bottom of my screen. Those settings are not in the repo, but if anyone is interested I will update the configs to include everything. :)
Here we go. :)

Guake with fish
This one is mine. Pretty basic. iTerm + zsh
On my work machine, but looks almost identical to my home mac's terminal. I love this color and the transparency.
linux crashing the party!
Just the standart kde terminal with breeze dark theme.
I'm surprised nobody mentioned

Can't say but it looks like you messed the url or markdown syntax
