Is there a graphical front end for the pacman package manager? Much like Ubuntus sofware center?

ubuntu software center is not a gui frontend for apt, if that is what you meant.
Also yes, there are several gui frontends for pacman: wiki.archlinux.org

Because I want a computr where my not so tech savy friends also can install things if they want to.
They are too used to just pressing an install button as to write commands and stuff.
Colton Torres

I am using Manjaro btw.
Pretty easy to use, even for noobs.

Just found out Manjaro came with Pamac wich was pretty sweet.
Gabriel Wright
You can install pamac on all Arch based distros... I wouldn't use it for AUR packages, though, as it won't allow you to read or edit the PKGBUILD.

Nolan Russell
yes, just use manjaro honestly
Jack Perry
Pamac for GTK, and Octopi (my favourite) for Qt.

antergos has a gui for pacman/aur, it also doesn't have the horrid security history manjaro has
Blake Gomez
Manjaro had a few administrative mistakes in the past, but in the last 2 years it has grown and matured a lot, being one of the most popular noob friendly distros, while having all the advantages of Arch (wiki, AUR, etc.). Manjaro is better than Antergos since it's a "stable" version of Arch, while Antergos is just an Arch installer. May as well just go skip it and go directly for Arch if you're not gonna use Manjaro.
Nathaniel Sanchez
What are you on about?
Joseph Young
I don't agree, antergos is perfect because it's arch without the time waste of the installer, it's like a strictly better arch
