i recently saw, that there was a decent manjaro sway distribution for arm. this is my approach to port a lot from those configurations to a regular manjaro sway built, with some smaller and bigger changes:
- trying to use a decent cli solution whenever available
- automate stuff where feasible
images are build and uploaded in a relatively regular interval to github releases
after upgrading packages, you will sometimes need to update you skeleton:
cp -rf /etc/skel/.config/* ~/.config
keep in mind that this could cause problems with customizations you made. make a backup pls.

Otherwise: you tell me. I'd be happy to try to even out everything. PRs will be accepted in the repos listed below.
- check out the iso profile
buildiso -p sway
user: manjaro
password: manjaro
- make chromium use native window decorations
-
enable [this flag] (chrome://flags/#enable-webrtc-pipewire-capturer)(
chrome://flags/#enable-webrtc-pipewire-capturer) to allow screensharing in chromium -
fasttrack mirrors:
sudo pacman-mirrors --geoip && sudo pacman -Syyu -
auto enable bluetooth on boot:
echo "AutoEnable=true" >> /etc/bluetooth/main.conf
- initial inspiration came from the sway branch in the manjaro iso profiles repo
- most of the work is (with some modifications) copied from the manjaro sway arm overlay
