This is a really great distribution. After a very easy installation everything is ready. It uses spring for aur and "update" command is sufficient for update and it has very simple commands similar to . very stable and trouble-free, most importantly, it is constantly connected to arch linux.
The default desktop xfce provides extra convenience and speed. It is always fast and uses less hardware thanks to good configuration. Package installation with pamac is quite simple and fast. I think I've been using it for 3 years now. The system is still rock solid.

A wonderful linux distribution. No unnecessary packages,Archman not only works perfectly, but it also works as advertised. Dependability and productivity are a rare commodity and Archman gets it right.

Really easy to install, and when you're done you'll have a desktop environment is XFCE. Archman Linux is a very user-friendly, fast and uncomplicated (rolling) distribution. The system requirements are very low. Despite its only seeming simplicity, the main advantages of Arch Linux immediately become available to everyone and even to unprepared users.

Comfortable installation, no unnecessary packages, almost all that is needed in the first installation. It works fine.
