'''[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

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).
