Omarchy in one click
A prebuilt ARM64 Omarchy system ships inside the app. Create the machine and the Arch plus Hyprland desktop comes up signed in, with no ISO, no installer and no command line.
Why it matters
Omarchy's official image is x86_64 and cannot boot on Apple silicon at all. Building an ARM64 version yourself is a long afternoon. Shipping one inside the app removes the whole problem.
What changes
Without it
- Discover the official ISO will not boot on your Mac.
- Install Arch Linux ARM by hand, then run Omarchy's installer and answer its prompts.
With 1VMTool
- Open Experiment, name the machine, press create.
- The desktop appears already signed in.
How it works
The system ships with the app
A prebuilt ARM64 kernel and root filesystem travel inside the application bundle, which is why the download is large.
Direct kernel boot
1VMTool copies the root filesystem onto the machine's disk and boots the ARM64 kernel directly, with no ISO and no bootloader chain.
The host creates your account
A guest agent connects over virtio-vsock and the host creates the omarchy user, grants sudo, locks root and enables automatic login to Hyprland.
What it covers
- No ISO download and no Docker on your machine
- Generated per-machine credentials, shown in the app and stored 0600 in the VM bundle
- Automatic sign-in to Hyprland
- The desktop is software-rendered — there is no accelerated 3D
What you get out of it
- Omarchy on a Mac at all, which the official image cannot do
- A ricing environment where breaking things costs one click to undo
