# Sysfex
**Sysfex** is a command-line system information fetching tool for *Linux-based systems*, written in `C++`. It displays information about your operating system, software and hardware in an aesthetic and visually pleasing way.
## Key Features
- Print information beside or after ASCII
- Use image instead of ASCII using [viu](https://github.com/atanunq/viu)
- Customize output without recompiling `sysfex` through dedicated configuration files
- Easily extensible and understandable
## Install
### Dependencies
- `viu` (optional) : backend for rendering image
### Cloning and compiling
Clone Sysfex using `git`:

git clone https://github.com/mehedirm6244/sysfex
cd sysfex
```
