The command "fastfetch" is a tool used in Linux-based operating systems, specifically designed to quickly display system information and logo in the terminal.

When executed, fastfetch collects various system details and displays them in a stylish, concise format. It fetches information such as the operating system name and version, CPU details, GPU details, available memory, storage information, kernel version, desktop environment, and more.

The purpose of fastfetch is to provide users with a quick way to check the basic system information without having to go through multiple commands or navigation menus. It can also be used to generate a logo of the Linux distribution, as it can display an ASCII art representation of the distribution's logo.

To use fastfetch, you need to have it installed on your Linux system. Once installed, you can run the command "fastfetch" in the terminal, and it will output the system information and logo.
