Usage

1. Install Arch linux.

   A built-in installer (using archinstall) will be added in the future. In the meantime, use archfi instead. sudo and wget, and paru-bin must be installed.

2. Create a user.

   Create a user in wheel group and create a home directory:

   useradd -G wheel -m pomp
   

   Allow user to use sudo:

   EDITOR=vim visudo
   

   Now, log in to the user account.

3. Download the setup script.

   wget setup.developomp.com -O setup.py
   

4. Execute it.

   python ./setup.py
   

Full setup could easily take more than a hour depending on the internet speed.
