Archbento 🍱

Archbento is an opinionated, minimal Arch Linux bootstrap focused on a clean, comfortable TTY / console-first workflow.

It provides a reproducible baseline with:

• zsh + starship (TTY-safe, no Nerd Fonts required)
• fzf + zoxide
• fastfetch
• a small, intentional CLI toolset
• yay included by default
• an idempotent install script that can be safely re-run

Archbento is designed to be a foundation, not a full desktop. Machine-specific configuration and higher-level environments belong elsewhere.

Philosophy

• Console-first, GUI-agnostic
• Minimal, but not bare
• Observability over decoration
• Reproducible from a fresh Arch install
• main is living, tagged releases are frozen history

Installation (Fresh Arch Linux)

From a freshly installed Arch system (TTY):

sudo pacman -S git
git clone https://github.com/buzzycaf/archbento
cd archbento
sudo ./install.sh

After installation, switch to zsh:

chsh -s /bin/zsh

Log out and log back in (or reboot).
