What is a shell? Which one Should I Use? | Linux Discussion

This video covers what a shell is used for, and what shell you should use. I go through sh, bash, zsh, and fish. The sh and bash shells (I realize adding shell after that is redundant to the name) are mostly the same, sh is the predecessor to bash. Zsh however is slightly more interesting, it combines greater POSIX compliance, with plugin support, and quality of life features. Fish is the outlier in the shell world. Fish (Friendly Interactive Shell) is meant to be as user friendly as possible. It has all of the best plugins that zsh has built in (for example syntax highlighting and autocomplete for example) as well as a few additional ones. Fish does not have posix compliance, so you cannot write scripts in the language, and it's primarily configured in a web interface. It's worth trying, but not for everyone.
