The AUR is basically just a script that describes best case scenario for building something under Arch. They don't have any specific quality rules they have to meet.

It's super easy to make and publish an AUR script compared to a regular distro package (including Arch packages).

Usually they work well enough, especially things that just involve repacking binaries (e.g. printer drivers)
