Pleased to announce the release of ArchBang running the MangoWM window manager. This marks a full rebrand from FruitBang back to ArchBang.
A new ISO image, dated 1st July, has just been uploaded as promised — carrying up-to-date packages and the latest kernel.
Getting started: hit the yellow rocket icon on the waybar toolbar and you’re off. Most of what you need is accessible from that menu.
In ~/Scripts you’ll find a few useful tools, including:
- A yay installer
- abi-install — a GUI installer (optional/unwanted for terminal users, but sticking around)
A note on installers: arch-browser-installer is still very much a work in progress — treat it as beta, and only test it in a virtual machine for now. abi-install isn’t going anywhere; it’s aimed at users less confident on the terminal, and we’re interested in continuing to develop that idea.
Grab the ISO and give it a spin. Feedback and bug reports welcome as always.
Stay safe ……
