Description

https://ohmyposh.dev/docs/installation/windows

The instructions are great but also quite intimidating/difficult? Propose a code-along session where we help people get their terminals pretty together

Why is this important? It's not just about making things pretty - also lots of useful features including showing your current Python environment, which github branch you're on
