Although Manjaro is one-hundred percent Arch Linux compatible —being based on Arch Linux itself— it is not possible to access their official repositories for use in Manjaro. Instead, Manjaro uses its own repositories in order to ensure that any software packages that are accessible, such as system updates and applications, have been fully tested and are stable before release.
With that said, it is still possible to access additional software packages from the Arch User Repository (AUR). The AUR is managed by the Arch Linux user community itself. Although this repository is unofficial, software packages first placed here can ultimately make their way into Arch Linux's official (community) repository if they become popular enough. Unfortunately, as a community maintained repository, using the AUR does still present potential risks and problems. Risks, such as, the AUR providing:
Multiple versions of the same packages.
Out of date packages.
Broken or only partially working packages.
Improperly configured packages which download unnecessary dependencies, or do not download necessary dependencies, or both.
Malicious packages (although extremely rare) .
