Fig Terminal

A tiny plugin https://fig.io/ adhere superpower to Mac's built-in terminal. Yes, you’ve heard it right, I come across Fig last week and found it immensely capable of as a helping hand.

It has autocompleted and IntelliSense, which really help us, and most significantly its free version for Mac is almost of capable everything.

Installation:

The process of installation is pretty smooth and straight-forward and can be done in a minute, just open your terminal and run

brew install fig

That’s it as soon as brew installs it, Type Fig, and a GUI would open asking for a few simple steps including your email, but don’t worry Fig takes your privacy very seriously, I have been through its privacy policy in depth.

Helping Hand:

Adding IntelliSense for built-in terminal commands seems pretty obvious, so let’s try something a little different. Let’s try working with Git.

After typing the word git, it populates with all of the potential commands that we can run.

Similar to project directories, react, vue as It’s helping us out a lot there.

Wrap Up:

Here’s my short summary but you should test it out and must let me know, how you feel about it.
