Everyone has their favourite aliases for git and the shell. I have written about my git aliases before but not my shell aliases.

It is not a long list, but I have some that I find useful that you may find useful as well. Currently, my preferred shell is zsh. Here is what I currently have in my config.

alias rimraf='rm -rf'
alias flushdns='sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder'
alias zshconfig='vi ~/.zshrc'
alias nr='npm run'
alias ni='npm i'
alias y='yarn'
alias story='yarn storybook'
alias code='code-insiders'
alias tw='yarn test:watch'
alias '$'=''
alias zshconfig='vi ~/.zshrc'

What's in your shell aliases?
