Fastfetch Beauty Config

A custom configuration for fastfetch, a tool to display system information in the terminal upon opening. My config is designed to show OS, desktop environment, and hardware details in a minimalist style. This setup is not unique—similar configs are common online and share many similarities.

Setting Up Fastfetch

1. Install fastfetch:

   sudo pacman -S fastfetch

2. Copy the config to ~/.config/fastfetch/:

   mkdir -p ~/.config/fastfetch
   cp config.jsonc ~/.config/fastfetch/

3. To run fastfetch automatically when opening the terminal:

   • Recommended: Use the Fish shell for easier setup and consistent formatting. Add to ~/.config/fish/config.fish:

     if status is-interactive
         fastfetch
     end

   • Note: Adding fastfetch to ~/.zshrc may cause formatting issues, which can disrupt terminal appearance. While fastfetch output works correctly in any shell (Zsh, Bash, Fish, etc.), Fish provides a more consistent experience for automatic startup.

Configuration

The configuration file is available Here. It includes:

• Sections: System Information, Desktop Environment, Hardware Information.
• Custom separators and colored headers.
• Emoji support for better visual readability.
