Fastfetch 2.56.0 has been released, enhancing its capabilities as an Open Source, multi-platform application designed to fetch and display system information efficiently. Written primarily in C, Fastfetch prioritizes performance and customizability, allowing users to present their system data in an appealing manner.
The application consists of two executables: the main Fastfetch and a second one called flashfetch, which is optimized at compile time to minimize overhead. Users can configure both executables using flags that can be saved in a configuration file located at $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/fastfetch/config.conf. To explore the available configuration options, users can execute the command `fastfetch --help`.
Fastfetch is actively being developed, with ongoing updates introducing more features that can enhance performance, especially on slower machines. Users have access to premade configuration files available in the presets directory, which can be loaded using the `--load-config` option. These presets also serve as useful examples for formatting arguments.
Customization is a key feature of Fastfetch, particularly in terms of logos. For those interested in tailoring their display, detailed documentation is provided in the developer repository.
In addition to these features, Fastfetch can be beneficial for users seeking to identify hardware components and system specifications, with similar resources available for understanding hardware details like CPU cores, processor generations, and serial numbers.
As the development of Fastfetch continues, users can look forward to even more enhancements and features, making it a valuable tool for system information retrieval and customization
