Openbox Distros With The Wow Factor - Manjaro and Mabox

Most people use fully blown desktop environments because they come with all the bells and whistles you need out of the box.

However, because of this you often end up with something that you didn't create, and you may spend a lot of time customising it to your liking.

Window Managers are completely different. They manage windows. End of story. However, with a little work and patience you can build them up so
they become like your own custom made desktop environment.

Not everyone wants to do that of course, and it can understandably scare some away. However, for those tempted to dip their toes in the window
manager world it is possible to run pre-configured, lightweight window managers that contain all the goodness of a standalone window manager without the heavy lifting.

In this video I take a look at two examples of that genre - Manjaro Openbox (community spin) and Mabox Linux (another Manjaro distro).

I hope you enjoy the video :-)
