Other Packages
Arch has an amazing wealth of packages available for almost any type of software between the official repository and the Arch User Repository (AUR).
It couldn't be easier to use either. You install a new package by going to Install > Package in the Omarchy menu (Super + Alt + Space
) and typing the package you want. It'll automatically fuzzy filter the list of all packages. (You can also do it manually using with yay -S [package]
in the terminal).
If you want to remove a package, you can use Remove > Package from the Omarchy menu. It'll remove package, config files, and dependencies. (You can also do it manually using yay -Rns [package]
).
