## Customization
With customization and speed being two competing goals, this project actually builds two executables.
The main one being `fastfetch`, which can be greatly configured via flags. These flags can even be made persistent in `~/.config/fastfetch/config.conf`. To view the available options run `fastfetch --help`.
The main one being `fastfetch`, which can be very greatly configured via flags. These flags can be made persistent in `~/.config/fastfetch/config.conf`. To view the available options run `fastfetch --help`.
The second executable being buildt is called `flashfetch`, which is configured at compile time to eliminate any possible overhead. Configuration of it can be very easily done in [`src/flashfetch.c`](src/flashfetch.c).
At the moment the performance difference is measurable, but too small to be human recognizable. But the leap will get bigger with more and more options coming, and on slow machines this might actually make a difference.

## Packaging
At the moment, i only package for the [AUR](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/fastfetch-git/). This package will install both the fastfetch and the flashfetch binary (with default configuration), as well as the bash completion.

There also exists a package in the [Manjaro Repositorys](https://gitlab.manjaro.org/packages/community/fastfetch), not packaged by me, but usually very up-to-date.
