A specialized Arch-based distribution meticulously crafted to bring the aesthetic and atmosphere of the Blue Archive universe to your desktop.
Blue Archive Linux provides a "Schale-inspired" workstation experience. It combines the rolling-release nature of Arch Linux with a heavily customized KDE Plasma environment. The project focuses on visual consistency, high-performance animations, and a clean user interface.
- Arch Linux Base: Reliable, lightweight, and always up-to-date.
- Custom KDE Plasma: A bespoke desktop environment featuring custom icon sets, color schemes, and layout configurations.
- Dart-Powered Utilities: Built-in system tools designed with Dart/Flutter for high-fidelity animations and a premium feel.
This distribution includes two proprietary tools that serve as the interface between the user and the system. Both are built using Dart to ensure smooth, hardware-accelerated UI transitions:
- BAL Welcome: A first-boot utility that guides you through system initialization and basic configuration.
- BAL Helper: A specialized management tool for quick system adjustments and thematic settings.
