+# Fakeroot
+
+## Description
+
+This Ansible role installs **fakeroot** on Arch Linux systems using the Pacman package manager. Fakeroot enables non-privileged users to simulate root-level file manipulations—ideal for building packages or performing file operations that normally require root permissions.
+
+Learn more about fakeroot on [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fakeroot) and check out its details on the [Arch Linux Package Repository](https://archlinux.org/packages/?q=fakeroot).
+
+## Purpose
+
+The purpose of this role is to automate the installation of fakeroot so that users can simulate superuser operations without requiring elevated privileges. This is particularly useful in development environments and during package building processes.
+
+## Features
+
+- **Automated Installation:** Uses Pacman to install fakeroot.
+- **Idempotent Execution:** Ensures that fakeroot is installed and remains up to date.
+- **Simplified Setup:** Minimizes manual installation steps for environments where fakeroot is required.
+
+## Credits
+
+Developed and maintained by **Kevin Veen-Birkenbach**.
