Fastfetch is a [neofetch](https://github.com/dylanaraps/neofetch)-like tool for fetching system information and displaying them in a pretty way. It is written mainly in C, with performance and customizability in mind. Currently, Linux, Android, FreeBSD, MacOS and Windows 7+ are supported.

## Customization
|
|
|
|
Fastfetch uses the JSONC (or JSON with comments) for configuration. [See Wiki for detail](https://github.com/fastfetch-cli/fastfetch/wiki/Configuration). There are some premade config files in [`presets`](presets), including the ones used for the screenshots above. You can load them using `-c <filename>`. They may also serve as a good example for format arguments.
|
|
|
|
Logos can be heavily customized too; see the [logo documentation](https://github.com/fastfetch-cli/fastfetch/wiki/Logo-options) for more information.

## FAQ
|
|
|
|
Q: Why do you need a very performant version of neofetch?
|
|
> I like putting neofetch in my ~/.bashrc to have a system overview whenever I use the terminal, but the slow speed annoyed me, so I created this. Also neofetch didn't output everything correctly (e.g Font is displayed as "[Plasma], Noto Sans, 10 [GTK2/3]") and writing my own tool gave me the possibility to fine tune it to run perfectly on at least my configuration.
|
|
|
|
Q: It does not display [*] correctly for me, what can I do?
|
|
> This is most likely because your system is not implemented (yet). At the moment I am focusing more on making the core app better, than adding more configurations. Feel free to open a pull request if you want to add support for your configuration
