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.

## Build from source
See Wiki: https://github.com/fastfetch-cli/fastfetch/wiki/Building
## Usage
* Run it with default configuration: `fastfetch`
* Run it with [all supported modules](https://github.com/fastfetch-cli/fastfetch/wiki/Support+Status#available-modules) and find what you interest: `fastfetch -c all.jsonc`
* Find all data that fastfetch detects: `fastfetch -s <module> --format json`
* Display help messages: `fastfetch --help`
* Generate config file based on command line arguments: `fastfetch --arg1 --arg2 --gen-config`
## 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.
## Packaging
### Repositories
[![Packaging status](https://repology.org/badge/vertical-allrepos/fastfetch.svg?header=)](https://repology.org/project/fastfetch/versions)

## 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
