Do I need to install iwctl(iwd) after installing the bootloader.
So recently I decided to replace my current distro (Bedrock) which is on a dual boot with Windows 10 with arch. I did read the wiki and watched some tutorials on it and practiced in a VM. So my question is do I have to install iwctl (iwd) after installing the bootloader?
Hope this question is understandable.

If you want to use it, you have to install it. It's that way with almost everything in Arch.

As long as you have some type of a Network Manager then you don't have to install iwd package but in most cases some packages you download will download it already!
Here is some Network Managers!
