We are creating a series of YouTube videos under the “edu-“ label to guide users through the migration from ArcoLinux to Arch Linux. These tutorials aim to make the transition process smoother by explaining each step clearly and providing practical examples. Whether you’re switching to gain more control or to learn vanilla Arch, our edu- videos are here to support your journey.

ArcoLinux has stopped

Teaching never stops—because learning is a lifelong journey for all of us.

4 Navigating in Awesome and learning the many shortcuts

Navigating around in a windows tiling manager is different than in other windows managers.

We have tagnames to put applications on and we learn the most important shortcuts.

There is a very important shortcut to set your tiling and that is Super + Spacebar.

Super + esc is a supertip to kill a process that you want to stop immediately.

Rofi has been added to Awesome :

Super + R to select menu – ALT + A to save it

Super + F11 to choose menu’s

Super + F12 to choose menu’s

You can add gaps in Awesome between windows with shortcuts (CTRL + ALT +M and P) but you can set it also in the theme.lua. Change the value in theme.useless_gap.
