====================
        Welcome to **MUFASA**: the MUlti-component Fitter for Astrophysical Spectral Applications!

Overview
--------
**MUFASA** is a Python library for automating multi-component spectral fits to astrophysical data. It provides tools for:

- **Automated Multi-Component Fitting**:
  Fit spectral cubes automatically with multi-component models, leveraging spatial information for enhanced performance. The currently available models are:

    - **NH₃ (1,1)** (2-components; ``fittype='nh3_multi_v'``)
    - **N₂H⁺ (1-0)** (2-components; ``fittype='n2hp_multi_v'``)

- **Data Visualization**:
  Plots spectral and 3D visualizations of the fitted models.

- **Custom Modules**:
  For building custom pipelines or post-processing refinements, tailored for unique fitting needs.
