install.sh

sudo yum update

# Installing ZSH
sudo yum -y install zsh

# See https://superuser.com/a/1389273/599050
sudo yum install util-linux-user

# Change default shell for current user, most of the times it would be "ec2-user"
# Or use "sudo chsh -s $(which zsh) $(whoami)" to be sure
chsh -s "$(which zsh)"

# Install oh-my-zsh from https://github.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh#basic-installation

# OPTIONAL

# I recommend you to install the following plugins which make your life easier and more colorful

# Assuming you have git installed
# If not, simply do "sudo yum install git -y"
