Instant prompt works but it takes time to have everything ready

[Breigner01]

So, I have no problems with instant prompt it works fine.
I just realized fairly recently that it takes time for everything to be ready, it takes a couple seconds to have auto complete and the rest of the prompt.
I don't think that it's related but I also see that the logo next to the battery percentage cannot be rendered and I just have the following:

I don't think it's related but since it appeared at the same time as it started taking time for everything to start, I cannot exclude the possibility that these are related or are caused by the same issue.

For the icon, see https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k#icons-glyphs-or-powerline-symbols-dont-render.

You can figure out what takes a lot of time to load by disabling parts of your .zshrc one by one. Common culprits include nvm, pyenv and various eval calls.

Edit: @romkatv is a smart man and has already accounted for the breaking change. Running p10k configure will generate a prompt that's tailored to the font you're using. Thanks!

The missing icon is caused by a major upgrade to Nerd Fonts. There is a translation table available here: ryanoasis/nerd-fonts#1059 (comment). But the changes must be done in p10k source because the icons are generated there.

As a temporary measure, we as users could define icon overrides in our .p10k.zsh for broken icons:

# typeset -g POWERLEVEL9K_{element_name}_VISUAL_IDENTIFIER_EXPANSION='⭐'
# For example package.json element:
typeset -g POWERLEVEL9K_PACKAGE_VISUAL_IDENTIFIER_EXPANSION='⭐'

Icons can be found from https://www.nerdfonts.com/cheat-sheet.

Have you changed your terminal font? If so, run p10k configure.

Edit: make sure you are on the latest version of powerlevel10k before running p10k configure.
