+LARBS can be installed on any derivative of Arch Linux that uses the Arch repositories (including Manjaro and Antergos, etc. (but not Parabola, e.g.)). I recommend you to install it on a fresh installation to avoid conflict with other desktop environments, although you can run it on an already existing install. Note: LARBS will install config files in the home directory of the user you give it. It will not wipe your Documents or anything, but it will overwrite your ~/.bashrc, etc. If you have config files you want to hold on to, either back them up or you can select to install LARBS to another user.
To install, simply log in as the root user and run the following in the terminal:
