Wtf does this do

This repository is a single configuration file for Fastfetch, a popular command line tool that displays a summary of your computer's system information, things like operating system, hardware, and software, in a decorated text layout when you open a terminal. This particular configuration is tailored for people running Android 12 through Termux, a terminal app for Android, and specifically for those who have set up a full native X11 desktop environment inside Termux, such as XFCE, MATE, or LXQt, rather than just a plain command line. The configuration file draws an elaborate box-drawing layout using Unicode line characters and color coded sections, with cursor positioning codes to keep everything aligned into neat columns despite different pieces of information having different lengths. It groups information into labeled panels: a hardware panel showing device chassis, RAM, swap space, CPU with performance and efficiency core counts, GPU, disk usage, and battery level, a desktop panel showing your desktop environment, window manager session, display details including refresh rate, the X11 server backend in use, graphics driver, and installed themes and icons, and a terminal panel covering your shell, terminal program, font, color theme, and installed packages, including a small script that detects which package manager your system uses, whether that is Termux's own pkg command, pacman, apt, dnf, or others. Because Fastfetch reads this file as its own configuration, using this repository is simply a matter of installing Fastfetch itself and then placing this JSON file where Fastfetch expects to find its config, along with a custom ASCII logo file the configuration references. There is no application code to build or run beyond that: it is purely a display customization on top of an existing tool. This is a small personal project with one star, built for a specific niche of Android and Termux users who have gone as far as running a graphical Linux-style desktop on their phone and want their terminal system summary to look polished and match that setup.
