Package Management

Use the yay package manager to install and update software:

yay -Syu <package_name>

Example:

yay -Syu vim

This will install or update the vim text editor.

Note:

• Replace <package_name> with the actual name of the package you want to install or update.
• The -Syu flag performs a full system update, including package updates and dependencies.
