brrros's Issues

Improvement: Archiso

A more user friendly way of installing the OS would be to use archinstall to create an ISO that:

• Launches an script that installs arch+sway
• Launches our software+configs installation script/s

The obvious advantage of this is to being able to burn the ISO in an USB pen but it requires a considerable amount of tweaking to have this ready. It would be smart to speak with someone who already did this in the past.

Conclusion

Archiso → Build an iso with our installer, and that's all.

1. Our arch installer installs arch without using archinstall → The old way
2. Out software installer does everything else.

Future

• Following this approach, we could create a github pipeline that uses archiso and this repo to create a daily build (The same way we would do manually).

This is just an UX improvement, and it's not super important right now, but it would make it feel more like an OS/Distro.

Improvement: Systemwide theme selector

• OneDark
• TokyoNight
• Monokai
• Nord
  ....

It would be a good idea to store this on '~/.config/archsway-themes'. That way we can call the colors from sway/vim/other-stuff.

The main goal of this OS/Distro is to reduce the amount of time people spend on customization. (A bit like web-component in frontend programming?) So this should be a neat add-on.

Relace TTY by KMSCON

This provide HIDPI fonts compatibility for the TTY.

Improvement: Separate SO packages and extra packages

Right now we are installing the system packages and the optional packages in the same command. This doesn't allow the user to go super lean if they want.

Let's separate them and ask to the user, like civilized people.

• base packages → Needed for the normal function of the OS. (Includes printer by default as the cups service is VERY small)
• extra packages → Our opinionated recommended software (y/N as default). → If go trully lean, this may even not be necessary.
