## What it is
Tide is a highly customizable, asynchronous prompt theme for the Fish shell. It offers an interactive configuration wizard, pure-Fish extensibility, and fast background rendering for a responsive terminal prompt.

## Use cases
- customize my fish shell prompt
- show git status in my terminal prompt
- make my shell prompt faster and asynchronous
- configure a fish prompt with a wizard
- display current directory smartly in the prompt
- create custom prompt items for fish

## When to choose
- you use Fish shell and want a fast, feature-rich prompt
- you want an interactive setup wizard instead of manual config
- you need detailed git info (untracked/modified/deleted files) in your prompt

## When to avoid
- you use bash, zsh, or another non-Fish shell
- you don't want to install a Nerd Font
- you prefer a minimal prompt with no configuration

- maturity: active
- function: terminal-ui, developer-tools
- domain: developer-tools
- platform: cli, cross-platform
