The magazine was launched in November 2019. On September 11, 2019, EndeavourOS announced that they will release an online magazine, called Discovery, to give their users some background information on Arch commands and to inform them on new packages to explore.

As the distribution is based on Arch Linux, it provides most upstream features as-is.ĮndeavourOS provides access to the Arch User Repository (AUR), a collection of unofficial community-maintained source packages shipped by Arch Linux, by default through the yay package manager. As such, EndeavourOS is typically marketed as a beginner-friendly alternative to Arch Linux. ĮndeavourOS features a graphical installer, unlike the distribution it is based on, Arch Linux, where installation is typically performed manually through the command-line tool pacstrap.

The net-installer also allows the user to perform an offline install with the default Xfce Desktop themed with EndeavourOS branding.

#Endeavouros driver
The net-installer offers multiple desktop environments, window managers, driver and firmware packages, and kernels during the installation process. After the official launch of the distribution, the EndeavourOS team began to develop a Calamares net-installer, which was expected to release in November 2019, but was delayed to December. While EndeavourOS was originally planned to ship with Cnchi, the net-installer used by Antergos, technical difficulties resulted in the adoption of an offline installer based on Portergos, a Linux distribution also based on Antergos, as a stop-gap until the issues could be resolved later in development. Installation ĮndeavourOS uses the Calamares system installer. Development on EndeavourOS quickly began, with the team planning to create a distribution that would be close to Arch Linux with the convenience of a GUI installer, while leaving GUI Pacman wrappers such as Pamac from the out-of-box installation. The idea received support from within the community, and within a day other Antergos moderators joined the project. In May 2019, Antergos' developers abruptly announced that development on the project would cease a moderator of Antergos' forums discussed the idea of maintaining the community on a new forum.
