Introduction

The CLI starts with the root repository sindresorhus/awesome and guides to to the final repo according to your choices. It fetches Readme files of the repositories and parses them to create the select lists. So, the CLI needs a working network :). It also uses file caches to cache the Readme file contents. You can find the cache folder with name ".awsomecache" under your home folder.
