How can you only live without a shell?
Hello, my name is Stephan, I'm in the beginning of my fourties and I'm developing under Windows.This is how I would introduce myself to the anonymous developers. After twelve years with macOS I must occupationally get along with Windows since middle of this year. What is going well now, because Windows isn't more bad than macOS or Linux. And the other are not better. Only different.
You realize, I'm in the phase of denial.
But honestly, what do I really need? An IDE (PhpStorm) and DDEV as configuration software for Docker. And a shell.
And the last one is missing under Windows. cmd.exe and the Windows PowerShell can't belong to iTerm2 with Oh My Zsh. And also after several months I'm crying after my shell under macOS. I have by now found a replacement with ConEmu and Oh My Posh but a PowerShell really does not feel so good in comparison to zsh. But there is also the Quake mode with ConEmu.
