Features

Quick start

npm

npm install -g typewritten

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

Manual

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

Note: if using oh-my-zsh, set ZSH_THEME="" in your .zshrc to disable oh-my-zsh themes.

Other ways to install

Many other ways to install typewritten are available in the docs

Customization

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:
