If you're on a Mac, the `zsh` that comes with it is usually pretty stale. You can use `brew install zsh` to update it.

Many of the themes here use special glyphs for things like displaying a branch icon. You'll need to use a [Nerd Font](https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts) or a Powerline-compatible font in your terminal program or you'll see ugly broken boxes where the symbols should be.
