'''[http://www.enlightenment.org/ Enlightenment]''', sometimes known simply as E, is a lightweight desktop environment known for its configurability and tools for creating beautiful user interfaces using its Enlightenment Foundation Libraries (EFL). E started in 1997 as a stacking windows manager, emerging as a desktop environment with development release 0.17. E does not come with a broad array of tools by default, which can be an advantage for experienced users who want to customize their installation, and a disadvantage for users with little or no experience of Linux. E uses a few unique terms, for example referring to panels as “shelves”. A 64-bit installation of E uses about 160M of memory.
'''
====== Install a basic E environment ======
sudo pacman -S enlightenment
====== Optional: Install and use Entrance, the recommended display manager for E ======
Entrance is available from the AUR in the package '''entrance-git'''.  Information on how to install packages from AUR can be found '''[https://wiki.manjaro.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository here]'''.  This is an example using yay
sudo pacman -S --asdeps meson && yay -S entrance-git
sudo systemctl enable entrance.service --force
====== Optional: Install Manjaro themes for E ======
sudo pacman -S enlightenment-manjaro-themes

'''[http://www.enlightenment.org/ Enlightenment]''', sometimes known simply as E, is a lightweight desktop environment known for its configurability and tools for creating beautiful user interfaces using its Enlightenment Foundation Libraries (EFL). E started in 1997 as a stacking windows manager, emerging as a desktop environment with development release 0.17 (DR 0.17, more popularly known as E17). As of E18 compositing has been incorporated by default and development has focused on readying E for the Wayland display server protocol (available, but not considered completely stable, in E20). E does not come with a broad array of tools by default, which can be an advantage for experienced users who want to customize their installation, and a disadvantage for users with little or no experience of Linux. E uses a few unique terms, for example referring to panels as “shelves”. A 64-bit installation of E uses about 160M of memory. '''Use this command to install it:
'''
sudo pacman -S enlightenment
To install a selection of Manjaro themes for E, enter the command:
sudo pacman -S enlightenment-manjaro-themes
Enlightenment does not install a Display/Login Manager (DM) for you. However, you can install the EFL-based Entrance DM from the AUR. If you have yay installed, this command will install Entrance:
  yay -S entrance-git
