My setup for Windows Terminal: WSL2/ExtraProfiles, keybindings, Prompt and Color Scheme.

Windows Terminal - Setup

This repository contains my setup for the Windows Terminal, as I almost exclusively use WSL on Windows and find the built-in terminals for WSL, Python, Powershell, and CMD really ugly and cumbersome.

• Shells/Profiles
  • Defaults to Ubuntu-20.04 (must be installed with WSL).
  • Python
  • Powershell
  • CMD
• Global keybindings
  • Similar to the ones I use on VSCode.
    • Tab navigation
    • Pane navigation/resizing
    • Etc.
• Color Scheme
  • Similar to the ones of my Linux Dotfiles and my VSCode theme.
• Font
  • Source Code Pro (must be installed).
• Prompt (WSL profiles only)
  • My variation of Fancy Bash (must be installed within the WSL distro).

Install

Close the Windows Terminal if it's open, then go to the Windows Terminal's settings folder:

cd /mnt/c/Users/<YOUR_WINDOWS_USER>/AppData/Local/Packages/Microsoft.WindowsTerminal_8wekyb3d8bbwe
