## Project history and usage

cpufetch is a command-line CPU information display tool written in C, styled after the fetch-tool family but focused on CPU architecture details.

### Project history

The official GitHub repository was created in 2018. Its README describes cpufetch as a simple CPU architecture fetching tool that displays CPU information in a clean terminal presentation.

### Adoption history

The README directs users first to OS packages and shows a Repology packaging badge, with source builds and release binaries as fallbacks. That packaging-first installation path fits the tool's role as a small terminal utility distributed across Unix-like and Windows package ecosystems.

### How it is used

Users run cpufetch to print CPU details and an architecture/manufacturer-themed logo. The README documents supported operating-system and architecture combinations, color customization, source builds, Android/Termux use, and debug reporting for unknown microarchitectures.

### Why package nerds care

cpufetch is package-nerd friendly because it is a small C utility with broad OS/architecture packaging, visible hardware-support churn, and a release cadence driven by newly detected microarchitectures.

### Timeline

- 2023: v1.03 and v1.04 releases were published.
- 2024: v1.05 and v1.06 releases were published.
