Explore migrating to zsh along with OhMyZsh & zsh-autosuggestions plugin #589

Closed tschaffter closed 6 months ago

We are currently using the bash shell in the dev container in part because that's what I've been using for years. I would like to revisit whether this is the most convenient solution for most members of the team.

@rrchai I kind of remember that you are using zsh, which I think is now the default on macOS. Is that correct? Are there features of zsh that you are missing when developing with a bash shell?

@vpchung Do you have any preference between bash and zsh?

Yep, zsh is the default now for macOS (which you can reset to bash if desired).

AFAIK, zsh has plugin and theme support, and can also attempt at fixing mistakes in typing directory paths. That being said, I didn't see a huge difference between the two, so I always just stuck with bash. I'm good with whatever.
