Oh My Fish is a framework for the Fish shell that provides core infrastructure for installing packages and themes that extend or modify the shell's look and behavior. It includes a package manager (omf) and a large ecosystem of community themes and plugins.

Use cases

  • customize my fish shell prompt with a theme
  • install plugins for the fish shell
  • manage fish shell configuration packages
  • make my terminal prompt show git status
  • find a fish shell alternative to oh-my-zsh
  • create and share fish shell packages

When to choose

  • you use the Fish shell and want easy theme and plugin management
  • you want a package manager for shell customization similar to oh-my-zsh
  • you want a rich prompt with git-aware themes like bobthefish

When to avoid

  • the project is unmaintained and some themes/packages are broken
  • you use bash or zsh instead of fish
  • you need actively maintained tooling with timely bug fixes
