Oh My Posh is now part of Project Zenith, the new ready-to-code Windows experience for developers. A beautiful terminal, right out of the box.

What's new: a live Studio editor linked to the Configurator, native git status for a much faster prompt, a background daemon for instant renders, and a binary trimmed by ~30%. Faster and lighter, across the board.

Studio, Native Git, and a Leaner Binary | Oh My Posh
Studio now hands off to the Configurator, git status runs natively for a 10x speedup, and steady dependency cuts shrank the binary by nearly a third.

Saw @scott.hanselman.com’s guide to configure @ohmyposh.dev for the @github.com Copilot CLI, so I built a proper integration. One script, one config, and a dedicated segment that shows everything you need. Interested? ohmyposh.dev/docs/install...

Drove this puppy all the way to the south of France last week with zero issues. Usually my kids and spouse get carsick after a while but nothing this time. They opposed getting a Tesla due to obvious reasons, but there’s no denying this is a really great car.

Over the past six months, I’ve been focused on building my new career, which meant stepping back from @ohmyposh.dev. It’s been intense, but I’ve really enjoyed it. The work actually energizes me instead of wearing me down. Now that I’m settled in, I’m ready to get back to oh-my-posh 🚀

You might not know oh-my-posh has an MCP server because I never told anyone before due to playing with the possibilities, but thinking about it, a skill that leverages it to create valid configurations based on a conversation would make a lot of sense.

A new terminal segment just landed. Upgrade to v28.1.0 to monitor your GitHub Copilot request usage directly from the command line — inspired by @eliostruyf.com ‘s Copilot Usage Tracker. Prefer tracking usage anywhere? Pair it with Elio’s tracker for the complete experience.

Open source didn’t hand me car keys. But building in public taught me to code, communicate, take feedback & grow. Habits → skills → opportunities → career. And that career? It bought the car. Open source unlocked the path to earn it.

I finally had time to play with the new functionality @jan.ohmyposh.dev created in Oh My Posh and contributed some docs on it as well. If you're looking for an automated way to configure your terminals, I wrote a quick blog about it: www.idontlikeai.dev/i-documented...

I documented Oh My Posh's DSC support and your terminal configuration just got way easier
Stop manually configuring your prompt. Start automating it and store it in version control

I’m considering moving Oh My Posh’ MIT-license to a dual-license model: • MIT remains for open source, personal, and academic use • Companies using it to build commercial or closed-source products would need a subscription Good idea or bad idea?

Been digging into IO performance for oh-my-posh to optimize session & device cache reads. Swapped out unnecessary boxing with gob encoding for a nice runtime boost. But discovering memory-mapped files on Windows? Total game-changer.

Jan De Dobbeleer @jan.ohmyposh.dev · 29/08/2025
Tried caching the @ohmyposh.dev config as encoded gob data instead of re-reading it every prompt. Result? At least 4x faster 😮

I’ve been toying with knuckle tattoo ideas forever, and it just clicked that you can actually spell out TERM INAL. Not saying it’s a great idea, especially the second half, but still kind of wild.

MSIX is modern and easy to build but it can’t set environment variables like MSI, and it doesn’t support full system-wide installs. So now I’m wondering, what’s the best path forward?

There were a few things I did not check, but they've been fixed in the meantime. Make sure to upgrade to v26.0.3 to benefit from these. If you still see an issue on that version, reach out.

Jan De Dobbeleer @jan.ohmyposh.dev · 29/05/2025
This release is currently building. I tested it as much as I could and it seems to work everywhere. But I’m still worried as it does change the way we initialize the shell which could still introduce side effects. We’ll see. Worst case I revert this part.

Jan De Dobbeleer @jan.ohmyposh.dev · 27/05/2025
Small update on where I am with this one. I think I nailed it. There's now the option to load async, which will improve initialization by a factor of 2 on top of the previously mentioned speed improvements.

I have to admit—I’ve been on the edge of burnout, and the past year has challenged me in ways I never expected. This week, I finally hit a wall, mentally shutting down on my way to work. But despite the exhaustion, one thing remains clear: I genuinely love working with most of the people around me.

Corporate environments seem to be built to foster mediocrity. Ambitious reorganizations are set in motion but rarely come to fruition, and those with true vision either burn out or walk away, leaving behind only those who thrive in the comfort of mediocrity. It appears to be the natural order.

Jan De Dobbeleer @jan.ohmyposh.dev · 08/05/2025
Remember this one? Due to this realization I made @ohmyposh.dev 3 times faster to initialize. Most shells now have an almost instant start up, and PowerShell went from 1.5 seconds in most cases to 400/500ms. 🚀🧑‍🚀

The stale issues at @ohmyposh.dev challenge the code's foundation or highlight gaps in my understanding. Today, I tackled one by viewing it from a fresh perspective, a year post creation. In tech, we're trained to prioritise speed and quick solutions, but some problems need time — and that's okay.
