steamfetch is a terminal utility inspired by neofetch that presents Steam profile and library statistics in a styled command-line display.
It can show account information, playtime data, achievement progress, top played games, recently played games, and rare achievement details. The tool can also display a Steam avatar image in supported terminals, with fallback output for less capable terminal environments.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- Runs as a command-line application with demo mode for testing without Steam API credentials.
- Supports configuration through ~/.config/steamfetch/config.toml or STEAM_API_KEY and STEAM_ID environment variables.
- Can use the Steamworks SDK when the Steam client is running for more accurate game ownership detection.
- Falls back to the Steam Web API when the Steam client isn’t available.
- Caches achievement and image data locally to improve subsequent runs.
- Provides verbose output to help debug Steam client detection, API requests, retries, and failures.
