    1. Update and upgrade

      Section titled “Update and upgrade”

      Fetch the latest package lists and apply security patches.

      Terminal window

    2. Install stash

      Download and run the stash installer.

    3. Run stash

      Section titled “Run stash”

    4. Update .bashrc (optional)

      Section titled “Update .bashrc (optional)”

      If stash is not working as expected, or zsh is not starting as your current shell, add this to .bashrc. This ensures the stash path is available and Bash automatically starts zsh as a login shell.

      Terminal window
      nano ~/.bashrc
      .bashrc
      export PATH="$PATH:/home/droid/.local/bin
      

      if [ -x "$(command -v zsh)" ]; then
        export SHELL=$(command -v zsh)
        exec $(command -v zsh) -l
      fi

    5. Change default shell (optional)

      Section titled “Change default shell (optional)”

      If zsh is still not being used as your default shell, set it as the default login shell.

      Terminal window
      chsh -s $(which zsh)

    6. Compile .zprofile and .zshrc

      Section titled “Compile .zprofile and .zshrc”
