omz is very very heavy weight. Back when there was a freenode and #zsh it was widely hated as only IRC can hate something. You can source https://github.com/z

Yes it is incredibly heavyweight, but it's very batteries-included in its approach, which helps zsh newbies get started. For those who want to shed the heavyweight omz stuff, I recommend zplug [0] [0] https://github.com/zplug/zplug https://github.com/zplug/zplug

  Or zgenom[0]. Or if you want to get ESPECIALLY froggy and async with your shell startup, zinit[1]. I ran zinit for years before moving to zgenom. A large swath of electron apps use some weird NPM library to “resolve” your shell environment by kicking up a full interactive shell and then reading the environment variables out of it. zinit messed with that and would hang a lot because of all it’s async loading.
