How do I use it?

First, install the tools as described here.

For help you can make use of the --help option. The basic usage is to pass an URL as an argument. Example:

$   wafw00f https://example.org

                   ______
                  /      \
                 (  Woof! )
                  \  ____/                      )
                  ,,                           ) (_
             .-. -    _______                 ( |__|
            ()``; |==|_______)                .)|__|
            / ('        /|\                  (  |__|
        (  /  )        / | \                  . |__|
         \(_)_))      /  |  \                   |__|

                    ~ WAFW00F : v2.2.0 ~
