Cheat Sheet
There are 216+ color schemes for iTerm2. Here's my shortlist. I chose them because they are easy on the eyes and distinct.
The installer will download them to ~/Downloads/webi/iterm2-themes
~/Downloads/webi/iterm2-themes/Tomorrow\ Night.itermcolors
~/Downloads/webi/iterm2-themes/Firewatch.itermcolors
~/Downloads/webi/iterm2-themes/Dracula.itermcolors
~/Downloads/webi/iterm2-themes/Elemental.itermcolors
~/Downloads/webi/iterm2-themes/Ubuntu.itermcolors
~/Downloads/webi/iterm2-themes/cyberpunk.itermcolors
~/Downloads/webi/iterm2-themes/Hivacruz.itermcolors
~/Downloads/webi/iterm2-themes/ToyChest.itermcolors
It's up to you to open them, and then iTerm2 will ask you to confirm.
open ~/Downloads/webi/iterm2-themes/*.itermcolors

How to set up profile switching
I suggest using different profiles:
- Default (no matching hosts)
- Local (matching my local
hostname) - Remote (matching
app@for VPSes and cloud environments) - Prod (matching specific
app@hostnames for production systems) - Root (matching
root@)
You need to "Install Shell Integration" on each host for profile switching to work.
