Add chapters for the top bar and its panels, screenshots and recording,
toggles/idle/screensaver, browsers, shell plugins, and networking, which
collects the Wi-Fi, DNS, firewall, and Tailscale material that was spread
across the FAQ, TUIs, and services chapters.

# Omarchy on...
### Apple M1/M2 chips
[Asahi Alarm](https://asahi-alarm.org/) is a version of Arch for Apple M1/M2 computers built on top of [Asahi Linux](https://asahilinux.org/). You can get Omarchy running on top of that with some effort. See [the user-driven guide](https://codeberg.org/malik-na/omarchy-mac).
### Apple Virtual Machine
You can also install Omarchy inside a Parallels VM. Quite the cumbersome process, but there's [a user-driven guide](https://github.com/basecamp/omarchy/discussions/452) for that too.
### VirtualBox
VirtualBox is a popular VM runner. [You can run Omarchy inside that too](https://github.com/basecamp/omarchy/discussions/176). But performance probably won't be great.
### VMware Workstation on Windows 11
Another popular VM runner for Windows. [Omarchy has been setup inside of that as well](https://github.com/basecamp/omarchy/discussions/572).
### Steam Deck
The Steam Deck runs on Arch, which means you can run Omarchy on your Steam Deck. Altynbek Orumbayev has [a full setup script and explanation on how to do it](https://github.com/aorumbayev/deckarchy). How cool is that!
### NixOS
Omarchy is really Arch + Hyprland, but Henry Sipp has [ported the essence of the setup to NixOS](https://github.com/henrysipp/omarchy-nix). So if you've been nix-pilled, here's a good starting point. It may or may not stay up-to-date with the latest Omarchy changes, but it's pretty cool none the less!
### Something else!
If you're trying to get Omarchy running on a configuration that isn't the default, you should join the #omarchy-on-other channel on [our community Discord](https://discord.gg/tXFUdasqhY).
