# 1. Support
cpufetch supports x86, x86_64 (Intel and AMD) and ARM.
| OS | x86_64 / x86 | ARM | Notes |
|:---------:|:------------------------:|:-------------------:|:-----------------:|
| GNU/Linux | :heavy_check_mark: | :heavy_check_mark: | Best support |
| Windows | :heavy_check_mark: | :x: | Some information may be missing. <br> Colors will be used if supported |
| Android | :heavy_exclamation_mark: | :heavy_check_mark: | Some information may be missing. <br> Not tested under x86_64 |
| macOS | :heavy_check_mark: | :x: | Some information may be missing. <br> Apple M1 support may be added <br> in the future (see [#47](https://github.com/Dr-Noob/cpufetch/issues/47))|

# 2. Installation
## 2.1 Installing from a package
Choose the right package for your operating system:
[![Packaging status](https://repology.org/badge/vertical-allrepos/cpufetch.svg)](https://repology.org/project/cpufetch/versions)
If there is no available package for your OS, you can download the cpufetch binary from [the releases page](https://github.com/Dr-Noob/cpufetch/releases), or [build cpufetch from source](#22-building-from-source-linuxwindowsmacos) (see below).
## 2.2 Building from source (Linux/Windows/macOS)
Just clone the repo and use `make` to compile it
```
git clone https://github.com/Dr-Noob/cpufetch
cd cpufetch
make
./cpufetch
```
The Makefile is designed to work on Linux, Windows and macOS.
## 2.3 Android
1. Install `termux` app (terminal emulator)
2. Run `pkg install -y git make clang` inside termux.
3. Build from source normally:
- git clone https://github.com/Dr-Noob/cpufetch
- cd cpufetch
- make
- ./cpufetch
# 3. Examples
Here are more examples of how `cpufetch` looks on different CPUs.
## 3.1 x86_64 CPUs

## 3.2 ARM CPUs

# 4. Colors and style
By default, `cpufetch` will print the CPU art with the system colorscheme. However, you can always set a custom color scheme, either
specifying Intel or AMD, or specifying the colors in RGB format:
```
./cpufetch --color intel (default color for Intel)
./cpufetch --color amd (default color for AMD)
./cpufetch --color 239,90,45:210,200,200:100,200,45:0,200,200 (example)
```
In the case of setting the colors using RGB, 4 colors must be given in with the format: ``[R,G,B:R,G,B:R,G,B:R,G,B]``. These colors correspond to CPU art color (2 colors) and for the text colors (following 2). Thus, you can customize all the colors.
# 5. Implementation
See [cpufetch programming documentation](https://github.com/Dr-Noob/cpufetch/doc/README.md).
# 6. Bugs or improvements
See [cpufetch contributing guidelines](https://github.com/Dr-Noob/cpufetch/CONTRIBUTING.md)
# 7. Acknowledgements
Special thanks to [Gonzalocl](https://github.com/Gonzalocl) and [OdnetninI](https://github.com/OdnetninI). They tested `cpufetch` in its beginnings in many different CPUs they have access to, which made it easier to debug and check the correctness of `cpufetch`.
Special thanks too to the fellow contributors and interested people in the project!
