<p class="Pp"><code class="Nm">Crystal Linux</code> uses a pacman wrapper called
<b>ame</b> to install, remove, updated and search packages, however users
are still able to use pacman directly.</p>
<p class="Pp"></p>
<p class="Pp"><b>ame</b> is written in rust and is particularly fast with aur
packages since it builds multiple aur packages at once.</p>
<p class="Pp"></p>

flatpak.</p>

Distribution, you boot the live iso and launch the Installer.</p>
<p class="Pp">The installer, <b>Jade</b> <b>GUI</b> is a custom written
installer that uses libadwaita and gtk4 for the frontend, and the
<b>jade</b> as the backend.</p>
<p class="Pp"></p>
<p class="Pp">Once the user boots into crystal for the first time, they are
greeted with a first setup application that allows them to set up Flatpak,
install nvidia drivers and change the color scheme.</p>
