In my high school days, I was obsessed with switching out the themes of my terminal. It was cool that I was able to customize a tool that, for the most part, isn’t the most advanced in terms of user interface. It was also a nice way to subtly showcase my personality and hobbies, similar to a poster I might tape up in the wall of my room. For many years, my terminal wallpaper was the famous meme of Saitama from One Punch Man (if you know, you know).
In this blog, I am going walk you through how to customize your terminal to Warp’s pride theme in honor of pride month.
For context, Warp has an open source repo for its theme extension point, meaning anybody can contribute themes that you can then download into your local version of Warp. There are two options:
This option will take about 1-2 minutes to set up. The video below shows how I download the specific pride.yaml file and pride background image into my local Warp directory.
mkdir -p ~/.warp/themescd ~/.warp/themesmkdir holidayvi pride.yaml. A blank .yaml file should show up in your terminal:wq to save the contents of your pride.yaml file and quitcp ~/Downloads/pride_bg.jpg ~/.warp/themes/holidayThis option is faster, but you will end up with all the themes in the open source repo. The video below shows how I cloned the themes repository into my local Warp directory.
