How It Works

• Multi-arch & Chaotic-AUR: Enables the [multilib] repo for 32-bit gaming libraries and sets up [chaotic-aur] for precompiled binaries so you don't spend hours compiling large packages from source.
• AUR Helper: Installs yay if you don't already have an AUR helper installed.
• Progress & Logs: Shows live stage descriptions and auto-scrolling output during installation. Full log output is mirrored to ~/class-install.log.
