How I got my Windows PowerShell Terminal looking better | NOT PowerLevel10k
This video starts with a Windows 11 23H2 installation with the default Windows PowerShell Terminal. I’m a bit of a fan of Oh-My-ZSH + PowerLevel10k for the Linux Desktops I built for work, so my goal was to have a similar looking prompt on Windows for my PowerShell terminal. I take you step by step through the process of improving the appearance of the terminal.
