The "neofetch" command is used to display system information and hardware details in a visually appealing manner, often used in terminal emulators. It retrieves various pieces of information such as the operating system, kernel version, CPU architecture, available memory, graphics card details, and more.

When you run the "neofetch" command, it collects system information from various sources and generates a colorful ASCII art logo or an image of your Linux distribution or operating system. It also provides other information in text format, like the hostname, uptime, desktop environment, and system theme.

Neofetch allows users to customize its display by specifying flags and options. These can include changing the ASCII art, adding or removing certain details, specifying colors, or selecting a specific image or logo for the distribution. This command is particularly popular among Linux enthusiasts and those who enjoy personalizing their terminal appearance.
