Show HN: tintcd – directory-aware terminal theming for PowerShell

3 points| myyke | 2 months ago |github.com

I built a PowerShell module that hashes directory paths to generate unique background colors. Each folder gets a stable, deterministic tint – no configuration needed.

Why? I always have several terminal windows open in different folders. I'd alt-tab back, squint at the prompt, and wonder if I'm still in the right place. The prompt alone wasn't enough. I wanted something low-effort: no manual config, no color-picking — just instant "wait, wrong folder!" recognition or a warm and fuzzy "ah yes, this one."
