# `fletchling`

A light and stylish fetcher written in [Nim](https://nim-lang.org)





# Introduction

`fletchling` is a system information fetcher that seeks to be fast and

light. While small, it's also customizable and gets the job done

with style.

It uses what Nim has to offer to its advantage:

- Small executable size

- Dependency-free

- Quick performance

> [!note]

> `fletchling` is in alpha and in heavy development.

> I regularly use it on NixOS, but it's not guaranteed to work

> on other systems yet.

# Why `fletchling`?

`fletchling` started as my first program in POSIX shell.

The language and syntax weren't quite the right tools for the job

as it grew in complexity, so I rewrote it to start learning Nim instead.

Hence, the portmanteau of "fetch" and "fledgling."

# Special Thanks

I want to give my thanks to [nitch](https://github.com/ssleert/nitch) for

being my first introduction to Nim and a major inspiration for this project.

Other notable mentions:

- [disfetch](https://github.com/q60/disfetch), which inspired the previous POSIX shell version

- [diyfetch](https://github.com/info-mono/diyfetch)
