## Introducing `bloat` 🐌
47+
If you don't like the Arch way of doing stuff with the terminal we have prepared you a **completely optional** and simple post-installation script to help you finish setting up your Arch Linux system by installing a desktop environment, propietary Nvidia drivers (optional), Flatpak support and more.
48+
49+
![bloat](img/bloat-banner.png)
50+
51+
### Has SimplyArch become what it swore to destroy?
52+
- **No**, select None when installation finishes to skip `bloat` and keep rolling 😇
53+
- The base SimplyArch script **will continue to be a separate component that provides only a minimal system**
54+
- **ProTip:** Review the choices `bloat.sh` will make for you
55+
### Supported desktop environments
56+
- GNOME (minimal install included)
57+
- KDE Plasma
58+
- Xfce
59+
- LXQt
60+
- LXDE
61+
- Cinnamon
62+
## Project file structure
63+
- `simplyarch.sh`: our base and main script
64+
- `simple-reflector.sh`: a simple script that uses the `reflector` tool to fetch an updated list of fastest 20 mirrors, this script gets copied to the home folder on every install for convenience purposes
65+
- `bloat.sh`: the optional post-installation script
66+
- `README.md`: this file
67+
- `LICENSE.md`: MIT License
68+
- `img` folder: as the name says
69+
