Enable plugins by adding them to .zshrc.

  • Open .zshrc

    nano ~/.zshrc

  • Find the line which says plugins=(git).

  • Replace that line with plugins=(git zsh-autosuggestions zsh-syntax-highlighting fast-syntax-highlighting zsh-autocomplete)

  • If you have a clean installation of zsh and you haven't touched .zshrc yet you can use the following command instead sed -i 's/plugins=(git)/plugins=(git zsh-autosuggestions zsh-syntax-highlighting fast-syntax-highlighting zsh-autocomplete)/g' ~/.zshrc
