The `fases` project tries to provide friendly, functional, simple, 
and compliant with the [POSIX.1-2017](https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/) specification (also known as 
IEEE Std 1003.1™-2017 or The Open Group Base Specifications Issue 7, 
2018 edition), core utilities for a fully functionnal UNIX-like Operating 
System. It tries to be entirely portable and working on any UNIX-like 
Operating System and kernel such as OpenBSD and Linux. It also tries 
to be completly modular and as such one utility should **not** depend 
on another in order to work. The coreutils are still a work-in-progress.
The `fases` utilities are currently tested on Artix, Alpine, OpenBSD, OS X and
FreeBSD. We expect all utilities to work on all systems implementing POSIX 
due to us using only POSIX-compliant functions.

`fases` is spelled with a lowercase `f` and is pronounced "phases". The name 
historically meant `Ferass' Base System` but the abbreviation soon 
became inapropriate because other people were contributing so it is now open 
to whatever abbreviation you prefer (`fine and simple experimental system`, 
`functionnal and simplistic expected system`, whatever...).
