As psh was initially build as a simple install script for zsh, the focus lays on an easy installation process - while still being powerfull enough to generate huge and personalized .zshrc's. While the installation process is straight forward . only Linux distributions that ship with apt as package manager are currently compatible.

A note on the Windows subsystem for Linux

The Windows subsystem for Linux (WSL 1) has by default some permission issues when used with git. After launching zsh for the first time, you will encounter an warning from compinit, simply accept it and run the fix-wsl.sh. This script will fix the permissions of all antigen bundles located at ~/.antigen/.
