Colour and them not working on Macbook Air M1

[philipperobertt]

Dear community,

As it is possible to see on the attached files, the theme of Dracula (file #2) is not working on my iTerm terminal (file #1).

I followed all the simple step on Dracula's website (https://draculatheme.com/iterm), but it does not work.
It is worth nothing that I am new in the field.

I am looking forward for some help 🧛

Thank you !!

If you run no commands with color output, you won't see the theme colors. The colorscheme for iTerm only changes the terminal emulator's color palette. Try some git commands, or ls -G (macOS), or add some colors to your prompt variable using the xterm escape sequences.

(The example shot is kind of a poor example for expectations because it shows an Oh-My-Zsh theme which uses colors, and a plugin for the same which highlights command lines with some syntax.)

To add more details on prompts: I don't use Oh-My-Zsh and cannot recommend it or how to configure it.

You can see an example of a custom ZSH prompt here in my dotfiles.
