So what is this Distro actually? What it makes so special such that I feel ashamed not to post about it?
If you install major Linux distributions such as Ubuntu, Fedora, OpenSUSE, Mint, you are usually greeted by with an appealing greeting from the community, guiding you to start the installation. Otherwise, if you pick a Live Distro, you will be presented with a stunning desktop environment, batteries included, a culmination of the strenuous effort of the community.
But those aren't the epitome of The Arch Way
If we talk about Arch Linux, we talk about simplicity. And by simplicity, it is on the developer, not the user.
If a newbie wants to build an Arch Linux installation, the first thing he needs to do is to allocate time.
Afterwards, visit this site , grab a cup of coffee, and happy hacking!
Once you have tried, you will understand the relevancy of this post's title.
Enjoy a fast , lightweight, and bleeding edge distributions that you built yourself* !
Note :
This is the serious part : if you are an avid Linux user, and a Computer Science major, you should try to install Arch Linux. It really helped me to show off my skills understand how a full featured Linux desktop is built and configured.
Who knows that maybe someday in the future a gruesome client wants you to transform his ancient computers to a working machine.
