# Supercharge Your Terminal With Zsh

**[Callstack Blog](https://daily.dev/sources/callstack-blog)** · 24 min read · 14 upvotes · 1 comments

## Summary

A practical guide to configuring Zsh for a faster, more productive terminal experience without the bloat of Oh My Zsh. Covers enabling autocompletion with caching via compinit, history persistence, auto-cd, typo correction, and keybinding fixes. Recommends using antibody as a lightweight plugin manager and walks through key plugins: zsh-syntax-highlighting, zsh-autosuggestions, zsh-history-substring-search, zsh-completions, and a yarn completions plugin. Also covers setting up the Spaceship prompt with Powerline/Fira Code fonts and preserving working directory when opening new terminal tabs on macOS.
