npm install -g typewritten

That's it. The script will make the necessary symlinks to fpath and set the prompt in your .zshrc.

Clone the typewritten repository somewhere you can easily link. I recommend creating a .zsh directory at root.

mkdir -p "$HOME/.zsh"
git clone https://github.com/reobin/typewritten.git "$HOME/.zsh/typewritten"

Load typewritten in your .zshrc by using zsh prompinit:

fpath+=$HOME/.zsh/typewritten
autoload -U promptinit; promptinit
prompt typewritten

Many other ways to install typewritten are available in the docs

typewritten is customizable in many ways. To keep the readme file as lean as possible, the documentation was moved to https://typewritten.dev.

The documentation is separated into two parts:

• Prompt customization, everything to do with how and where the info is displayed
• Prompt color customization, set a custom color for any of the prompt sections
