hyper

Installs the Hyper terminal (built on web technologies) from a GitHub release zip archive.

Terminal window
zi for \
bpick'*.zip' \
from'gh-r' \
sbin'!**/bin/hyper' \
@vercel/hyper
  • from'gh-r' — downloads the release archive from GitHub Releases.
  • bpick'*.zip' — selects only the .zip asset from the release (Hyper provides multiple formats per platform).
  • sbin'!**/bin/hyper' — creates a lazy shim named hyper pointing to the binary at **/bin/hyper anywhere inside the extracted archive (requires zinit-annex-bin-gem-node).

The annex zdharma-continuum/zinit-annex-bin-gem-node must be loaded before this recipe.

Terminal window
# prerequisite — load once at the top of .zshrc
