Zsh has become the default shell for a lot of Linux and macOS users, and for good reason. Between Oh My Zsh, autosuggestions, and smarter tab completion, there's a lot going on under the hood.

But how much do you actually know about it? Take this quiz and find out.

Few people know that Zsh's roots go back to 1990, when Paul Falstad created it as a student project. That means, Zsh is older than Linux. 

I've spent a good amount of time customizing my own zsh setup, and honestly, there's more to it than most users realize. Tab completion itself works very differently (or should I say better) from bash. Then there's spelling correction, smarter globbing, and configuration through .zshrc that can get as simple or as complex as you want.
