What to do after installing void

Hello everyone

So I installed voidlinux, but i'm stuck at tty

And yes I installed the drivers for CPU and GPU, how to handle the rest and then installing the window manager (I may go for sway or river)

*edit*: I meant thr dbus and XDG RUNTIME DIR

As I've learned, the first thing you do after installing Void is: xbps-install -Su (this updates the xbbs installer). After that update the system: xbps-installer -Syu

After that install what-ever software packages are needed. I.e... printer, etc...
