We are creating a series of YouTube videos under the “edu-“ label to guide users through the migration from ArcoLinux to Arch Linux. These tutorials aim to make the transition process smoother by explaining each step clearly and providing practical examples. Whether you’re switching to gain more control or to learn vanilla Arch, our edu- videos are here to support your journey.

Teaching never stops—because learning is a lifelong journey for all of us.

Content of video

  • get the content of our Githubs – pkgbuild of Calamares
  • get the code in from https://github.com/calamares/calamares
