[UTM] Install ArchLinux on iPad | Build & run C apps

Info and updates: UTM is an early work-in-progress virtual machine app for iOS. It uses qemu to provide software accelerated emulation. There is no public release planned anytime soon. However, UTM is a free and open source project and we need both front end and back end developers to help! Check out This video demonstrates creating a new Linux VM, installing ArchLinux, then booting into ArchLinux, writing a C program in nano, and then build it using clang. All running natively on an iPad Pro 2018. For your sanity, all text input scenes have been sped up 4x or 8x and the actual installation is sped up 20x. Some dull parts and mistakes are cut out. However, everything else is running in real time including the boot sequence.
