Cool, let's make one for arch


I wonder how hard it would be to abstract the intent from the particulars of the distro being used. And then implement adapters for Arch, Slackware, Fedora and arrive at the same final polished setup.


Our machine bootstrap script at work supports Arch, Ubuntu, Debian, Pop OS, and more thanks to Homebrew. The only thing that uses the package manager is when installing Docker.

In fact the scripts for Linux and macOS are almost identical.
