To run setup:

• Follow the Arch installation guide till the end but do not reboot

  ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "[email protected]"
  eval "$(ssh-agent -s)"
  ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_ed25519

TODO

• Only install packages needed at each step
• Setup remaining config files eg. ~/.config/, /etc/, /usr/, ...
• Maybe migrate to Wayland
