Hiya, tbh I don't think there's much to do besides installing specific software that your require out of the box, I think garuda is basically plug and play so not much fiddling to do, which version of garuda you got ? I think even the ones like the qtile versions come with mostly everything ready to go but I'm not sure. Myself I'm used the sway flavor but removed almost everything sway related and replaced it with hyprland and there was not much to do, also remember that if you are really newbie you can use the garuda assistant to install software from a gui
Went with the Gaming one, just to have everything out of the box. I'll remove whatever i consider 'bloat'. So far so good!
I agree with top comment. The point of Garudo is to be usable out of the box. Only thing left to do is install software, games and optionally tools to manage Proton/Wine versions. To summarize: Steam + ProtonUp-Qt (to download protonGE for Steam), Heroic Launcher for Epic+GOG games and/or Lutris/Bottles for everything else.
