### Which aspects of shell and terminal does Powerlevel10k affect?
|
||||
|
||||
Powerlevel10k defines prompt and nothing else. It sets prompt-related options (their names start
|
||||
`prompt`), and parameters `PS1` and `RPS1`.
|
||||
|
||||
Powerlevel10k does not affect:
|
||||
|

- Terminal window title.
|

- Colors used by `ls`.
|

- Command line colors (syntax highlighting).

- Prompt parameters other than `PS1` and `RPS1`.

### What is the best prompt style in the configuration wizard?
|
||||
|
||||
There are as many opinions on what constitutes the best prompt as there are people. It mostly comes
|
||||
down to personal preference. There are, however, a few hidden implications of different choices.
|
||||
|
||||
Pure style is an exact replication of [Pure Zsh theme](https://github.com/sindresorhus/pure). It
|
||||
exists to ease the migration for users of this theme. Unless you are one of them, choose Lean
|
||||
style over Pure.
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to confine prompt colors to the selected terminal color palette (say, *Solarized Dark*),
|
||||
use *Rainbow*, *Lean* → *8 colors* or *Pure* → *Original*. Other styles use fixed colors and thus
|
||||
look the same in any terminal color palette.
|
||||
|
||||
If you enable transient prompt, take advantage of two-line prompt. You'll get the benefit of
|
||||
extra space for typing commands without the usual drawback of reduced scrollback density. Having
|
||||
all commands start from the same offset is also nice.
|
||||
|
||||
Similarly, if you enable transient prompt, sparse prompt (with an empty line before prompt) is a
|
||||
great choice.
|
||||
|
||||
If you are using vi keymap, choose prompt with `prompt_char` in it (shown as green `❯` in the
|
||||
wizard). This symbol changes depending on vi mode: `❯`, `❮`, `Ⅴ`, `▶` for insert, command, visual
|
||||
and replace mode respectively. When a command fails, the symbol turns red. *Lean* style always has
|
||||
`prompt_char` in it. *Rainbow* and *Classic* styles have it only in the two-line configuration
|
||||
without left frame.
|
||||
|
||||
If you value horizontal space or prefer minimalist aesthetics, disable *current time* and use *few
|
||||
icons*. The extra icons enabled by the *many icons* option primarily serve decorative function.
|
||||
Informative icons, such as background job indicator, will be shown either way.
|
||||
|
||||
*Note*: You can run configuration wizard as many times as you like. Type `p10k configure` to try new
|
||||
prompt style.
