# Apdatifier
### Arch Update Notifier
# Features
- Searching updates for [pacman](https://archlinux.org/packages/), [AUR](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages), [Plasma Widgets](https://store.kde.org/browse?cat=705), [Flatpak](https://flathub.org), [Firmware](https://fwupd.org/lvfs/vendors/)
- Notification for updates and news
- Bash script with useful options for managing packages
- Two types of lists: compact and extended with additional information
- Button to initiate a full system upgrade in the selected [terminal](#supported-terminals)
- Option to refresh the [mirrorlist](https://archlinux.org/mirrorlist) with the latest mirrors filtered by speed
- Customizable icon on the panel and package icons in the list
- Also should work on non-Arch-based systems (for Plasma Widgets and Flatpak)
