PoshColor is a blatant ripoff of PSColor ☺️, allowing you to customise items in powershell based on your own color preferences. PoshColor works in Powershell Core and works across both Windows and Linux.
PSColozier can use either standard console colors or 8 bit RGB allowing 16 million colour goodness.
There are currently 3 themes that come with PoshColor. Feel free to contribute more themes to make PoshColor the best it can be.

PS Color seems to be a dead repository. There have not been any updates to the repo in a few years, and there are a few outstanding issues that have not been resolved. Yes, I could fix these issues, however there are PRs others have raised to fix some of the issues which have not been accepted in years. ALSO, I thought it would be fun to do :)
