N/A - Bash-it is a framework, not a single command.
Installation involves cloning the repository and sourcing the bash-it.sh file.

Bash-it is a framework for managing and extending your bash environment. It's designed to provide a robust, customizable, and extendable command-line interface experience. Think of it as oh-my-zsh, but for bash. It allows you to easily manage aliases, completions, themes, and plugins, all organized in a structured directory layout. Bash-it aims to improve productivity by providing helpful tools and customizations out-of-the-box, while also making it simple to add your own. You can quickly enable or disable different components, change your shell prompt, and customize your environment to suit your needs.

Because Bash-it uses Bash as its shell, most Linux distributions can run it immediately.

Bash-it relies on Bash. Make sure you have Bash installed and that it is your default shell. Customizing Bash-it heavily might require a solid understanding of Bash scripting.

Typically, Bash-it is installed by cloning the GitHub repository to ~/.bash_it and then sourcing the bash-it.sh file in your ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile. You also need to perform additional configurations, such as enabling plugins or themes.

Bash-it is configured through environment variables and files in the ~/.bash_it directory. You can customize the prompt, enable or disable plugins and aliases, and modify the behavior of the framework.

Bash-it can be updated by pulling the latest changes from the Git repository. It's recommended to back up your configurations before updating to avoid losing any customizations.

Bash-it was created to provide a bash equivalent to popular zsh frameworks. It has evolved over time with contributions from many users, adding new features, themes, and plugins. The project focuses on ease of use and customization, allowing users to adapt their Bash environment effectively.
