choco install fish
If your original query regarding "fishgrs" was actually meant to be Fisher, you are already thinking ahead. While Fish is great on its own, it has a robust ecosystem of plugins.
Fisher is a plugin manager for Fish that allows you to easily extend the shell's capabilities. Once Fish is installed, you can install Fisher with a quick curl command: fishgrs install
curl -sL https://git.io/fisher | source && fisher install jorgebucaran/fisher
From there, you can install themes (like "Bob the Fish" or "Tide") to make your prompt even more informative, or utilities to integrate with version control systems. choco install fish

fishgrs install --url https://github.com/oh-my-fish/theme-bobthefish
Once installed, you can start Fish simply by typing fish in your current terminal. However, to truly embrace the new environment, you will likely want to set it as your default login shell.
To do this, you first need to know where Fish is installed. Run the command which fish (usually resulting in /usr/bin/fish or /opt/homebrew/bin/fish). Then, use the chsh (change shell) command:
chsh -s /usr/bin/fish
After logging out and back in, your terminal will launch directly into the Friendly Interactive Shell.
