I really don't think this distro gets enough attention. Everyone is looking for an easy way to install Arch, but very few are talking about this as one of the best options. This is amazing work!

Great project. It is indeed a bridge for beginners to get a decent arch-based setup. Even for experienced ones, it saves a lot of time to install.
