-
Zsh Mailing List: the project has a mailing list where most of the stuff happens.
The
zsh-users
list is for asking questions as a user; thezsh-workers
list is for asking questions as a developer of Zsh code.I recommend joining the
zsh-workers
list and periodically reading the emails to push your knowledge further, even if sometimes you don't understand what you're reading. You can also use it to search if your question has already been answered by addingsite:https://zsh.org/mla
to your Google search. -
IRC: even though most of the stuff happens in the mailing list, you can try asking questions in IRC if you need immediate feedback. You can also use the #zsh channel of this server.
-
man
pages andinfo
: you can browse the Zsh man pages (man zsh
) or theinfo zsh
guide. These are equivalent to searching the Docs website, but you might be more comfortable doing it from the command line. -
The Troubleshooting section of the powerlevel10k theme's README has a lot of useful trivia about Zsh and terminals in general. The whole README is very useful, so even if it doesn't apply to what you're looking for, you'll probably learn a lot.
