In this video we’ll be duplicating an existing profile and configuring it to automatically SSH into one of my development servers. There are multiple ways the new profile can be introduced. In this video we’ll look at how you can quickly add a new profile to the Windows Terminal Some of the defaults that you might see pre-configured include things like PowerShell and Command Prompt, but you can introduce your own profiles to the Windows Terminal to fit your needs! This means you can add your favorite cloud shell or add a custom shell like NuShell directly to the Windows Terminal so they can be launched immediately with a hotkey or via the GUI. Windows Terminal also supports Acrylic effects, and you can use this either on its own or in conjunction with your background image like this: 'useAcrylic' : true,'acrylicOpacity' : 0.The Windows Terminal allows you to run any number of different profiles. This then tones down the background image and you're left with something less distracting that doesn't overpower the text. We can do that by adding an opacity value such as this: 'backgroundImageOpacity' : 0.2,
The fun doesn't stop there, though, and if you're using a full background image you probably want to tone it down a little. Save the file and your background image should now be attached to your shell. This example from Microsoft shows you the template to follow to create the theme in the image above: ,
Source: Microsoft (Image credit: Source: Microsoft) Microsoft has a great resource (opens in new tab) with some examples to help you get started.Įssentially, you add your own scheme with the hex string for the colors you want into the schemes section, then use this as you would in the first section to add the theme to your shells. If you're feeling particularly creative you can build your own.
The built-in themes aren't the only ones you can use in Windows Terminal. How to add custom themes to Windows Terminal Once you've added the theme, simply save the file and Windows Terminal will update before your eyes. Note, too, that if your theme is not the final line you must remember to add a comma at the end of its line. So, for example, to amend PowerShell 7 to have a One Half Dark theme, your settings would look something like this: 'hidden': false,'colorScheme': 'One Half Dark','name': 'PowerShell','source': '' In Windows Terminal as standard you can choose any of the following themes: It will follow this template: 'colorScheme': 'Your Chosen Color Scheme'
