I've tried all the distrowatch list there on the right. As an apple desktop user it is very difficult for me to accept any of these desktops as provided by the distros. The result is that I spend endless hours tweaking the graphical environments to make them "make sense". In this distribution all I had to do was to replace the upper right logo button from dmenu to full screen launcher (nwg-drawer). For me, this is a big success! The design that has been done is more than correct and beautiful. The fact that a media player is provided in the bar makes you immediately press play. The background music while you work makes you have a pleasant time.
It's a distribution that smells Unix-Linux everywhere. It's fast, easy, hassle-free and, above all, well-designed. I also like the fact that it installs a classic floating window manager and a tilling window manager and they are sharing the same application set and theme. So you have the opportunity to work development in tilling wm and multimedia in floating wm with ease and without effort. On the other hand, the floating window manager has many tilling features and the shortcuts are almost the same. Other features I like are the in-build screen-shooter and color-picker without the need for further installation and bloating the system. An amazing job has been done there. I suggest you try it.

Archcraft, especially with the premium spins, is one of the best options for anyone curious about using window managers/compositors like Hyperland, Sway, Newm-Atha, Bspwm, River, Wayfire, Qtile, blackbox, etc; they come fully configured and bug free. Many have custom themes and functionality to adjust themes to match wallpapers. Additionally, there is a vibrant discord community for answering questions. I've been running the Newm-Atha spin on my laptop and Sway on my desktop for 6 months without any issues.

really, really good distro, i am still new to linux, but this works for me, i am using the openbox edition and i love it, i learnt how to do a few things via youtube, archcraft website, for pacman issues, and from looking at adityas config files once i had learnt form distrotube on youtube what ones to use and so on, everything is working well, it is fast in use, i installed my own media player, vlc by choice rather than the one that ships with archcraft, and i also after a small time purchased the premium openbox config by aditya, it all works so well, i love it, really, much more interesting than windows though i will, i think always keep my windows machine as well... best of both worlds, i tried lots of distros but this one suits me the best and is the most enjoyable of all of them, top marks to aditya the dev and i hope he gets all the support he needs to keep this very special distro, quality distro going being as by his own admission at the moment he is sort of a one man band, without doubt archcraft is best in class in my opinion,
sw,
