first, we need to install our windows terminal, you can install it from Windows app store. This allows you to always be on the latest version when we release new builds with automatic upgrades.
Process -
Open your windows terminal, and click on the down arrow on the app bar and then click on the settings, it will open the setting.json file in your default code editor.
Under the profile, list update PowerShell profile to this :-
{
// Make changes here to the powershell.exe profile.
"guid": "{61c54bbd-c2c6-5271-96e7-009a87ff44bf}",
"name": "Windows PowerShell",
"commandline": "powershell.exe -NoLogo -NoExit",
"hidden": false,
"colorScheme": "Tinacious Design (Dark)",
"fontFace": "Fira Code",
"fontSize": 11,
"backgroundImageOpacity": 0.2,
"acrylicOpacity": 0.8,
"useAcrylic": true,
},
Now we need to add our color scheme,
Go to https://windowsterminalthemes.dev/ and choose any color scheme, Now click on Get Theme your color scheme is copied to your clipboard
In settings.json put your copied theme into the list name "schemes" like this
"schemes": [
{
"name": "Tinacious Design (Dark)",
"black": "#1d1d26",
"red": "#ff3399",
"green": "#00d364",
"yellow": "#ffcc66",
"blue": "#00cbff",
"purple": "#cc66ff",
"cyan": "#00ceca",
"white": "#cbcbf0",
"brightBlack": "#dadada",
"brightRed": "#ff2f92",
"brightGreen": "#00d364",
"brightYellow": "#ffd479",

"brightCyan": "#00d5d4",
"brightWhite": "#d5d6f3",
"background": "#1d1d26",

}
],
that's it with windows terminal themes, now we need to add some plugins
First, we need to install Oh My Posh, add this line in the PowerShell terminal window,
Install-Module oh-my-posh
While installation computer can ask you permission for installing a higher version of NuGet. You can simply press enter (default selection is “yes”) or can type “y” and then press enter.
After the installation is done now you need to install posh-git. For installing posh-git you need to type this line in the PowerShell terminal window
Install-Module posh-git
After installing the modules we need to import them, For that run following commands
Import-Module oh-my-posh
Import-Module posh-git
Boom Our terminal is ready to rock!
Adding the theme of an oh-my-posh to our terminal
For now, we are using Angnoster but you can check out other themes here https://github.com/JanDeDobbeleer/oh-my-posh#themes
set-theme Agnoster

Now your windows terminal is looking beautiful
But still the theme is not permanent,
For setting the theme permanent run the following command🚀
if (!(Test-Path -Path $PROFILE )) { New-Item -Type File -Path $PROFILE -Force }
notepad $PROFILE
This will open a notepad. Add these lines to the notepad and save it
Import-Module oh-my-posh
Import-Module posh-git
Set-Theme Agnoster
These will set the Agnoster theme permanently for Windows PowerShell.
