      Same. I guess, this is the Starship thread now. My config:

      I adapted it from the Gruvbox Rainbow theme.
      I can post my config, if anyone wants specifically that. (It does kind of assume a light background, though.)

      Another starship user. Mostly want it to summarise useful stuff for folders pulled from git or whatever so it’s pretty plain rest of the time. I use the same on all my boxes
