Fan of starship here. wanted to drop a few comments based on what I seen so far

Love the performance. Written in Rust and compiled to binary, it's _much_ faster than either python-based powerline, the bash-shell-based ohmybash and zshell-based ohmyzsh and spaceship.

You can use it for zsh, bash, sh, fish. but you can also use it for both MS Windows CMD and Powershell. I don't believe any other prompt tools can do all at the same time. And a single config file can control all of them on your system.

The default config is just that - a default. Too much information? you can change it. dont like icons? you can remove them.

At almost 100 modules to choose from, it's customization options are nearly limitless
