Bash is my go to. I set it up once, and don't have to touch it. No muss, no fuss.

Same. I dislike some "bash-isms" and lately trying to make my scripts more portable, but I am so familiar with bash that I end up falling back to bash-specific features.

How do you set it up? Are you referring to roaming/setting up your aliases/etc.? Or are you using some framework like Oh My Bash?

I have a private repo with all my dot files, including .bashrc, with all my base aliase, global environment variables ready for assignment, etc.

Makes sense. That’s what I assumed you meant, but I just wanted to double-check 👍
