Presumably you used the installation instructions at
https://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/a...raspberry-pi-3. If so you have a default
non-root user alarm. Use that user and sudo. First thing is to change that password.
At the top of the archlinuxarm.org page is a link to the ARM fora - go join that.
As for the rest, the standard guide(s) are the way to go. There are some variances, but pacman hides most/all from you, and you just install what you need as normal. Any "one-off" packages (like kernel source) are hosted on git.
