Zi's ecosystem extends the plugin manager with three building blocks: annexes that add new capabilities, packages that bundle complex setups into a single ice, and a curated plugin gallery.
Start with annexes
The bin-gem-node annex automatically manages Ruby gems, Node modules, and Python virtualenvs. Install it once via meta-plugins and everything just works.
What's in the Ecosystem
Annexes
Hook into Zi's lifecycle to add bin-gem-node, Rust crate management, patch-dl, readurl, and more.
Packages
Curated ice configurations for popular tools — fzf, neovim, zsh-system-completions, and more, ready to load.
Plugins
Featured Zsh plugins — syntax highlighting, autosuggestions, history search, and console tools.
