Organize ~/.zshrc sections¶
1. Oh My Zsh configuration¶
export ZSH="$HOME/.oh-my-zsh" ZSH_THEME="powerlevel10k/powerlevel10k" plugins=(git docker kubectl python node)
2. Oh My Zsh initialization¶
source $ZSH/oh-my-zsh.sh
3. User configuration¶
export EDITOR='vim' export PATH=\(HOME/bin:\)PATH
4. Custom aliases and functions¶
source $ZSH_CUSTOM/aliases.zsh source $ZSH_CUSTOM/functions.zsh
5. Tool-specific configuration¶
[ -f ~/.fzf.zsh ] && source ~/.fzf.zsh ```_
Sicherheitsüberlegungen¶
```bash
Secure history¶
chmod 600 ~/.zsh_history
Avoid storing sensitive data in history¶
setopt HIST_IGNORE_SPACE # Commands starting with space not saved
Use secure plugins only¶
Verify plugin sources before installation¶
Regularly update plugins¶
Environment variable security¶
Don't store secrets in .zshrc¶
Use external secret management¶
```_
Performance Best Practices¶
```bash
Minimal plugin set for better performance¶
plugins=( git sudo colored-man-pages extract )
Lazy load heavy plugins¶
Use async where possible¶
Profile startup time regularly¶
Clean up unused plugins and themes¶
