🛠️ This Repository's Installer

The install.sh in this repo provides a surgical, modular installation process.

How it works:

1. System Check: Verifies Arch Linux and runs a full system update.
2. Hardware Detection: Automatically detects GPU (NVIDIA/AMD/Intel) and applies specific fixes:
   • NVIDIA: Configures Early KMS, modeset=1, fbdev=1, and video memory preservation.
   • ASUS: Sets up asusctl, rog-control-center, and custom G14 kernels.
3. Modular Selectors: You choose what to install:
   • Desktop: Hyprland (Dynamic) or Niri (Scrollable).
   • Dev Tools: Full SDK support for .NET, Rust, Node.js, Go, Python, and Java.
   • Apps: Browsers, Editors, File Managers, and Social/Gaming tools.
4. Optimizations:
   • Niri + NVIDIA: Automatic fix for idle VRAM consumption.
   • Flatpak: Optional support installation.
5. Dotfiles: Deploys pre-configured configurations for window managers, Waybar, and Kitty.

Usage:

git clone https://github.com/your-username/arch.git
cd arch
chmod +x install.sh
./install.sh
