Lack of education causes poverty and poverty is the main cause of the lack of education; this cycle condemns the partially third world countries denying their students the possibility of access to theology and compentent developments worldwide
Being able to buy a computer in these conditions and promote technological development becomes too difficult a task. Colombia, a developing country which only contributed 0.5% of world patents between 2012 and 2015, reveals that the lack of education has negative effects on innovation.
The creation of strategies with emphasis on low cost products seems to be one of the most efficient solutions to begin to break economic barriers and access more specialized education. This is where Arch linux comes in, a free and open source operating system.
Thanks to Arch’s optimization of resources, it can be executed with smoothness in low-end machines, having a fully usable computer, capable of being used in scientific, administrative and multimedia tasks that do not require much processing capacity. Programming in c, c ++, phyton, java, arduino, etc. would be entirely possible.
In addition, being an open source system allows us to modify and adapt it in different areas to have a better experience, with installation of tools and offline applications for places that are not so accessible to the Internet.
The worst problem of Arch is to be a distro Rolling release and it may be that in places where the connection is very slow or null, the package update would be a big headache and we would have to make small constant updates, but with a decent connection it could be update and not have to re-download a complete operating system.
We had already seen similar ideas as Endless Os but they do not finish convincing because are very limited distributions that do not provide a satisfactory experience, we hope that arch is able to turn into a competent solution and promote technological and scientific developments.
