Arch Linux

Arch Linux is an independently developed, x86-64 general-purpose GNU/Linux distribution. It emphasizes simplicity, minimalism, and code elegance, and can serve different roles depending on what you install.

You install a minimal base system and assemble only what you need or want. No GUI configuration tools are provided. Most system setup happens in the shell by editing text files. Arch typically offers the latest stable versions of software.

Features:

• Minimal base system, user-configured
• Install only required packages
• Shell-based configuration via text files
• Rolling release with latest stable software
• No official GUI utilities

For users with Linux experience who value control and customization.
